Our Programs

Our programs focus on creating stability and a sense of place to families and the neighborhoods they call home.

Workforce development

Earning a livable wage is one of the greatest barriers to stability. Our workforce training program offers technical training and career-readiness courses to individuals who are facing barriers to employment.

Stable housing

A key component to a healthy neighborhood is stable housing for neighbors no matter their income level. We take a neighbor-first approach to promoting stable housing by offering redeveloped homes at affordable prices, providing financial education classes, and even one-on-one counseling to first time homebuyers.

Neighborhood engagement

An engaged and hopeful group of neighbors is key to a flourishing community. That’s why City Fields partners with community residents to organize community associations as well as organize a range of events and projects that produce stability, safety and a sense of belonging to the communities we serve.

Community gardens

Community gardens not only serve as a source of healthy food for families, but also cultivate connections between neighbors and create a sense of place within the community.

Youth Development

We partner with schools, parents, and other organizations to create opportunities for children with events like "Walk to School Day" and "The Blythe Community Circus." We also serve youth in our community through our Foster Youth Training Program, where youth aging out of the Foster Care system are provided with resources and opportunities to succeed as young adults.
