The proposed Douglass Community Land Trust (DCLT) seeks an Executive Director.
DCLT is an innovative initiative to establish a non-profit community land trust with an initial focus on the neighborhoods in Ward 8, East of the Anacostia River in Washington, DC.
The DCLT is intended to fulfill one of the key recommendations of the Equitable Development Plan (EDP) that was created through a comprehensive, community-driven planning process led by the non-profit Building Bridges Across the River (BBAR).
BBAR is partnering with the city to transform an old freeway bridge structure into a new civic space. The goal of BBAR’s Equitable Development Plan is to ensure that the park is a driver of inclusive development- development that provides opportunities for all residents regardless of income and demography.
