We Love our REGION
GRPCDC reflects The Houston Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical Area (CMSA) which encompasses Brazoria, Chambers, Fort Bend, Galveston, Harris, Liberty, Montgomery, and Waller counties. However the Houston-Galveston Area Council (H-GAC) model and region includes Austin Colorado, Matagorda, Walker, and Wharton counties; and represents over one quarter of the state’s population, covering nearly 12,300 square miles.
We Love Assisting Our Community
The region is anchored by the City of Houston, a hub of commerce, transportation, education, diversity, and culture. Houston is primarily located within Harris County, and is 168 miles from Austin, 197 miles from San Antonio, and 244 miles from Dallas. The region is also supported by many of the most respected Universities in the country that house over 400,000 students.
GRPCDC has forged a connection to a network of other non-profit and civic organizations, churches, mosques interested in neighborhood revitalization and affordable workforce housing. The network encompasses agencies in metropolitan Houston-Galveston Area Council(H-GAC) region and throughout the nation. The network brings access to technical and financial resources as well as a vast base of experience. The network can be a powerful advocacy force for the concerns of low and moderate blue-collar workers with affordable workforce housing needs.
