Welcome to a Resource Center for Non-profit & Community Development Professionals

Safeguard recognizes that the preservation of vacant and abandoned properties is critical to the implementation of redevelopment and stabilization strategies by non-profit and community development professionals. The creation and nurturing of a solid partnership between the public sector and the mortgage servicing industry is imperative to realizing the shared goals of combating blight, redeveloping communities, and returning abandoned properties to productive use.

By working at the street level and directly within communities, Safeguard has gained a vast working knowledge of the many challenges that you face. We are committed to bringing all sectors and parties to the table to share perspectives, being a resource for community development, and assuming the role of promoter of the works and findings by our non-profit partners.

The following tools and resources provide the foundation for continuing the dialogue, generating thoughtful actions, and creating innovative solutions. Each area contains valuable information that will arm you with the hands-on knowledge that will pave the way for and give rise to successes for all.

The below options will provide you with a plethora of related information of special interest to non-profit and community development professionals.
