The Douglass Community Land Trust is a nonprofit membership organization in Washington, DC, dedicated to promoting affordability, security, and prosperity for current and future generations. Through community ownership of land, the trust facilitates the development and preservation of permanently affordable housing, local small businesses, and other public assets. Their mission is to create an inclusive and equitable environment where everyone can thrive, particularly low-income, black, and brown residents who have historically been marginalized. Named after Frederick Douglass, a renowned statesman and abolitionist who was formerly enslaved and a resident of Anacostia, the Douglass CLT aims to prevent displacement, build community-held assets, and ensure decision-making power resides within the community. As a community land trust, they guarantee lasting affordability of rental and ownership housing, as well as support local small businesses, through collective stewardship. Membership is open to anyone affiliated with the District of Columbia who shares the organization's values and mission.Generated from the website
