20 AÑOS DE CENTRO BLANCO
WCCDA envisions a community of diverse, empowered, and connected residents who come together as stewards of the land, the people, and the built and natural assets of White Center. We like to think of our work as a tree with ever-growing branches.
Place
Development
We are stewards of WCCDA’s physical assets to ensure they are built, operated, and activated in service of community. The team oversees real estate and facilities management, construction and capital projects, condo and housing coordination, and HUB space and event operations—supporting the long-term sustainability, safety, and impact of our places.
Family
Development
We support White Center’s early learners, young adults, and families by providing resources, leadership opportunities, and community-building programs like Play and Learn and The Back to School (formerly Promise) Celebration. Our Play and Learn Families will have opportunities to network with each other, go on the occasional field trip, and be celebrated quarterly.
Economic Development
We work to diligently toward fostering a vibrant and equitable economy in White Center, focusing on uplifting BIPOC voices and supporting small businesses, residents, and youth. Efforts are channeled into resisting displacement, amplifying community engagement, and addressing various economic aspects.
Executive Director Aaron Garcia
We’ve grown from what this community nurtured in us. Our organization exists to serve, uplift, and protect it. We believe the solutions to our biggest challenges ahead of us already live here.
