The Marin City Community Development Corporation was
organized in 1979 to facilitate community economic development
where low income residents can live, work, and prosper.
The Marin City CDC has always viewed its mission as
comprehensive – working to improve the social, economic, and
physical quality of life for the community and its residents. The
physical redevelopment that has occurred in Marin City, the
increase in homeownership among residents, the increase in
employment, cultural promotion, and on-going community
advocacy are directly linked to the efforts of the CDC over its 33
year history.
In the last 6 years the agency’s:
Budget has grown from $450,000 to $2,000,000;
Staff from 3 to 15 regular employees, and an average of additional
25 employed through social enterprises;
Real estate and other assets worth over $5,000,000.

13. Major accomplishments:
MCCDC developed an innovative industry led model that has changed service delivery regionally.
In March 2013, MCCDC became a NISH affiliate, and we are in the process of securing Federal set aside
contracts to employ people with disabilities.
MCCDC has become the largest provider of vocational services to DOR in Marin County in a short period
of time, and has simultaneously expanded our catchment area to cover the entire county.
Overview:
MCCDC became a vendor for the State of California Department of
Rehabilitation (DOR) in March of 2011.
The service was created because Marin City Residents self-report a high
level of disabilities in our own intake demographic data.
In the current program year, MCCDC’s Rehabilitation Services team has
placed 36 individuals in employment, 20 have retained employment.
5 additional are reaching 90 day retention May; 4 eligible in June.
If the 4 eligible reach retention in June, 81% of those placed will be
retained in employment (the national average for the population is 50%).
