💰 Restricted vs. Unrestricted Funds ~ do you know the difference?

Not all nonprofit dollars can be spent the same way.

Understanding how funding can, and cannot, be used is essential to good financial management, donor trust, and long-term sustainability.

Strong organizations don’t just raise money. They understand how to manage it.

You have the idea. But have you studied the community? 👀

Before starting a nonprofit or community-focused business, there are questions every founder should be asking:

Who am I serving?
What does this community actually need?
What assets already exist?
Who are the stakeholders?
How do I engage people in the process?
How can my organization create sustainable impact?

📚 Community Development Foundations was created to help you start answering those questions.

This workbook is the beginning of the MCCLI learning journey, helping aspiring nonprofit founders, entrepreneurs, community leaders, board members, and changemakers build the knowledge behind the organization they want to create.

Because starting an organization isn't just about filing paperwork.

It's about understanding the PEOPLE, the PLACE, and the PURPOSE behind your work.

✨ Knowledge.
✨ Leadership.
✨ Action.
✨ Stronger Communities.

WHAT ARE THE ASSETS OF YOUR COMMUNITY?

By Mya Carroll, M.C.D.P.

Hiram Clarke & District K

In community development, we often focus on what communities need—housing, infrastructure, economic development, public safety, services, and investment.

But we must also ask:

What assets already exist in our community, and how can we build upon them?

Hiram Clarke has tremendous assets.

⛪ Faith-Based Organizations — Having Christ First Community Church, New Faith Church, The Fountain of Praise, and others serve as community anchors, providing resources, events, and support to families.

🏛️ Hiram Clarke Multi-Service Center — A hub for community programs and services that also houses the Vinson Neighborhood Library and technology resources.

🏗️ Community Investment — TIRZ 25, TIRZ 9, and the Five Corners Improvement District work collectively through the Tri-Party to support investment and improvements in our community.

🚌 Transportation — Our transit center provides critical connectivity to jobs, education, healthcare, and opportunity.

🌳 Sims Bayou — Beautiful walking and biking trails provide recreation, connectivity, and quality-of-life benefits.

And remember—Hiram Clarke is part of District K, which has even more incredible assets:

🏟️ NRG Stadium & NRG Park
🏛️ The historic Astrodome
🌿 Willow Waterhole
📚 Libraries & community facilities
🍽️ Local restaurants & small businesses
🌳 Parks, trails & green spaces

But our most important asset?

OUR PEOPLE.

Residents. Community leaders. Churches. Businesses. Civic organizations. And neighbors who continue to invest their time, talent, and voices in our community.

This is Asset-Based Community Development.

Instead of only asking, "What's wrong with our community?"

We should also ask:

"What's STRONG in our community—and how do we build upon it?"

📍 What Hiram Clarke or District K asset would YOU add to the list?

Let's build our community asset map together.

Leadership Is More Than a Title

One thing my leadership journey has taught me is this:

A title can give you authority, but it cannot make you a leader.

I've served in leadership in different capacities, nonprofit leadership, community leadership, organizational management, public boards, and community development, and each experience has taught me something different about what leadership truly requires.

Leadership is not simply being the person at the head of the table.

It's having the courage to make difficult decisions.

It's listening when you don't have all the answers.

It's bringing people together who may not always agree.

It's being willing to have uncomfortable conversations.

It's creating opportunities for other people to lead.

It's taking responsibility when things don't go as planned.

And sometimes, leadership means doing the work when nobody is watching, applauding, or giving you credit.

One of the most important lessons I've learned is that leadership and community development are deeply connected.

We can invest millions of dollars into buildings, infrastructure, programs, and initiatives, but without strong leadership, collaboration, accountability, and a shared vision, those investments may never reach their full potential.

Strong communities require strong leaders.

Not just elected leaders.

We need strong nonprofit executives.

Board members.

Neighborhood leaders.

Business owners.

Developers.

Educators.

Faith leaders.

Young leaders.

And everyday residents who are willing to step forward and say, "How can I help?"

That's why I believe leadership development must be part of the conversation when we talk about strengthening communities.

We aren't only developing neighborhoods.

We have to develop the people who will lead them.

As we begin another week, here's my Leadership Monday question:

What is one leadership lesson you had to learn through experience, not from a textbook?

I'd love to hear your answer.

Honored to attend the Hiram Clarke Fort Bend Redevelopment Authority (TIRZ 25) press conference with Congressman Al Green, Rep. Lauren Ashley Simmons, and Rep. Ron Reynolds celebrating the award of the EPA Brownfields Community-wide Assessment Grant! 👏🏽

This grant will help identify and assess potential brownfield sites, creating new opportunities for redevelopment, investment, and revitalization throughout the Hiram Clarke and Fort Bend communities.

As someone passionate about community development, it was inspiring to witness another important step toward transforming underutilized properties into places that create jobs, attract investment, and strengthen our neighborhoods.

The future of Hiram Clarke is bright, and this is just the beginning! 💙🏗️🌱

The Biggest Mistakes Communities Make When Trying to Revitalize Neighborhoods

This post is a conversation I had over the weekend.

Too often, communities believe revitalization begins with new buildings.

It doesn't.

Revitalization begins with people.

Over the years, I've learned that successful community development isn't simply about constructing new homes, attracting businesses, or improving infrastructure. Those investments matter—but they only create lasting impact when the people who already call the community home are included in the process.

Communities thrive when residents have a seat at the table.

When neighborhoods are revitalized without meaningful community engagement, trust is lost. But when residents, business owners, nonprofits, faith leaders, developers, and local government work together, revitalization becomes transformation.

As someone who has served in community leadership, nonprofit leadership, and urban planning, I've seen firsthand that sustainable change requires more than funding—it requires listening, collaboration, and a shared vision.

Great communities aren't built for people.

They're built with people.

What do you believe is the biggest challenge facing neighborhood revitalization today?

Brownfields & Blight of Hiram Clarke

Property Spotlight #1: Former Thomas Care Center W. Fuqua | Hiram Clarke | Houston, Texas

For many longtime residents, the former Thomas Care Center represents more than an abandoned building, it represents history. I worked there when I was 18 years old, and it once provided jobs and essential healthcare services to our community.

Today, after more than 20 years of vacancy, the property has become a symbol of blight along one of Hiram Clarke's major corridors.

This raises an important question:

How do we transform long-vacant properties into community assets?

A brownfield is a property where redevelopment may be complicated by actual or perceived environmental contamination.

Blight refers to neglected properties that negatively impact neighborhood safety, investment, property values, and community pride.

Rather than simply discussing what this property is today, I'd like us to imagine what it could become.

I envision a mixed-use innovation center that supports entrepreneurs, workforce development, small businesses, restaurants, and neighborhood services, creating jobs and new opportunities for Hiram Clarke.

As a community development planner and Chair of the South Post Oak Redevelopment Authority (TIRZ 9), my goal is to educate, encourage thoughtful dialogue, and inspire redevelopment that strengthens our communities.

If this property were redeveloped tomorrow, what would you like to see built here?

Let's move beyond identifying problems and start envisioning solutions.
