REACH Collaborative deploys our local street team of door knocking staff to speak one-on-one to residents on behalf of housing authorities, community developers, builders, public utilities, and essential services.
When your project touches peoples' homes, we help facilitate conversations with them.
Modernization and redevelopment work that requires trusted two-way communication with residents throughout the process.
New construction and rehabilitation projects that require participation and input from local residents.
A resident-facing partner who communicates with residents so they understand construction and relocation timelines.
Replacements and upgrades of gas, water, sewer and electric infrastructure work often require cooperation from and notification to residents and businesses.
Our Mission
We started REACH Collaborative to give housing authorities, developers, builders, and utilities a partner who can actually reach the people affected by their projects — including the residents everyone else struggles to reach.
How we're different
Seniors on a fixed income. Non-English speaking residents. Historically disadvantaged communities.
Reaching local residents takes more than a text message or a certified letter. Our local hire team of door knockers already knows the community, the block, and the language spoken.
We hire local residents to work in the communities they already call home. We have local street teams working in and around New York City, northern New Jersey and Westchester County, New York.
Focus areas
Door-to-door visits, community room sessions, and one-on-one conversations — in the language that households and families speak.
Connecting neighbors to the jobs happening in their own buildings and blocks, because the people who know a community best already live there.
Helping partners meet HUD Section 3 and local hiring requirements by reaching residents who qualify, want the work, and are ready for it.
