Welcome!

UVCA was organized in 2004 as a 501c3 organization to educate, train, and empower the residents through community services at Urban Village Apartments. UVCA entered into a relationship with Edgewood Community Services (ECS) in 2004 to identify and provide program oversight for community services at the community center. The program has offered after school programs, including reading and math instruction, help with homework and a host of social activities and field trips for seniors and youth. From 2005-2007, UVCA obtained funding from the Children and Youth Investment Trust Corporation (CYITC) for a summer youth camp to serve youth residing at Urban Village and in the neighborhood.

The Board of UVCA, which is made up of residents of Urban Village, a community leader and a representative of the owner, meets once a month. The Board actively oversees the service provider and determines policy and the types of services to be provided. A Tenant Services Fund and on-going contributions from property cash flow to UVCA as part of the partnership between the owners and the tenants assures continuity of services.
