As a CDE that has had the privilege of being allocated six consecutive federal NMTC, Central States Development Partners has played a pivotal part in creating and retaining 10,729 jobs in severely distressed census tracts where bankruptcy rates are 25% higher than national norms, low wage jobs account for 10% more of the job pool, access to capital is up to 17.6% lower for small businesses, and food insecurity rates are as high as 15%. Central States’ NMTC deployment and facilitation has helped to bring $683,979,335 in total project costs/investment into highly distressed areas. NMTC play a huge part in advancing our overall mission to create jobs, support neighborhoods, and strengthen the community fabric of low-income communities in ways that sustain and promote long-term viable economic success.
