Mika Community Development Corporation
www.mikacdc.org
Mika Community Development Corporation was founded in 2003 in the City of Costa Mesa—a city where the majority of its residents enjoy a healthy and safe community. Yet located throughout the City of Costa Mesa are pockets of low-income neighborhoods where the effects of poverty threaten the overall health of the community.
The issues facing these neighborhoods are complex. Racial divisions, language barriers, economic disparities, and relational breakdowns between individuals and the larger community create challenging social issues—issues that must be addressed from within the community itself.
Mika identifies and equips leaders in low-income neighborhoods to build communities with “VISION.” Communities with VISION demonstrate the following outcomes:
• Vision: Neighbors share and agree on a desired future for their community.
• Interdependent Relationships with God and Each Other: Neighbors support one another in all facets of life (spiritually, emotionally, socially, and economically).
• Servant Leadership: Leaders are committed to serve, listen, trust, collaborate, and empower other neighbors to serve effectively.
• Impact: Neighbors identify, design, fund, manage, and evaluate sustainable initiatives that transform their community.
• Organization: Neighbors establish efficient and effective local systems and structures to reach their shared goals and vision.
• Networks: Neighbors collaborate with public and private partners from inside and outside the community to maximize the impact of their initiatives.
