Community development nonprofit building housing, workforce, and small-business services in South Los Angeles
CRCD operates a multi-program community development organization across housing, workforce development, and entrepreneur support in South Los Angeles. The tech stack is standard nonprofit infrastructure (NetSuite, Salesforce, HMIS) — but the pain-point and project mix reveals operational strain: grant compliance tracking, timely housing-process completion, and eviction prevention dominate their backlog, suggesting the organization is resource-constrained around mission delivery rather than scaling cleanly. Hiring remains steady across support and ops roles, with limited data and no engineering capacity, indicating technology is a cost center, not a competitive lever.
The Coalition for Responsible Community Development is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2005 to serve low-income and working-class residents and small businesses in South Los Angeles. The organization delivers three core programs: workforce development for adults and youth, housing and permanent supportive services, and entrepreneur and small-business support. Operations span approximately 51–200 staff, funded through grants, earned income, and donations. Their current focus includes tenant transition readiness, employment barriers reduction, and grant performance compliance — areas where capacity gaps appear acute.
CRCD uses NetSuite for back-office operations, Salesforce for constituent management, HMIS for housing data, Microsoft Office suite (Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Outlook), Adobe Creative Cloud, SharePoint, and Google Ads.
Headquartered in Los Angeles, CA. The organization serves South Los Angeles and is actively hiring in the United States and Peru.
