Nonprofit organizations are among the most important partners of the DeKalb Regional Land Bank Authority. Together, we address housing challenges, restore vacant properties, and advance neighborhood revitalization.
Access to Land
Nonprofits often struggle to find affordable land for development. DRLBA bridges that gap by providing access to properties cleared of legal or tax barriers.
Programs Designed for Affordability
Through initiatives like the Depository Program and Conduit Transfers, nonprofits can acquire properties more easily and direct them toward projects with lasting community impact.
Ensuring Long-Term Benefits
By incorporating affordability covenants and use restrictions, DRLBA ensures nonprofit-led projects remain accessible for low- to moderate-income families well into the future.
Examples of Impact
Partnerships with nonprofits have led to affordable housing developments, community centers, and neighborhood stabilization projects that might not have been possible otherwise.
By working closely with mission-driven organizations, DRLBA expands its reach, leverages community expertise, and creates opportunities that align with both housing and social equity goals.
