Helping AltadenaRecover,Rebuild andRemain Rooted
Altadena CDC is a nonprofit community development organization focused on helping residents impacted by the Eaton Fire navigate recovery, rebuild homes, preserve homeownership, access trusted resources, and remain in the community they helped build.
We connect residents with recovery programs and services, provide rebuilding and homeowner support, and coordinate partnerships that address gaps in Altadena's long-term recovery.
Grounded in Community.
Guided by Purpose.
We coordinate people, partners, and resources to build a stronger, more resilient Altadena.
Altadena CDC helps Eaton Fire-impacted residents navigate the complicated path from disaster to long-term recovery. Our work focuses on helping residents find reliable resources, understand rebuilding pathways, preserve homeownership, and connect with organizations that can provide specialized assistance.
Recovery Navigation
We help residents identify relevant recovery programs, resources, organizations, application pathways, and possible next steps based on their needs.
Rebuilding Support
We support community-centered rebuilding through rebuilding-readiness assistance, housing initiatives, property development, and partnerships that help residents navigate the road back home.
Homeowner Preservation & Anti-Displacement
We support strategies designed to help existing residents protect ownership, understand their options, reduce displacement pressure, and preserve Altadena's community and generational legacy.
Recovery Partnerships
We work with nonprofit organizations, housing counselors, public agencies, service providers, funders, and community partners to identify recovery gaps and make assistance easier for residents to access.
Need help navigating recovery?
Ask questions, explore reviewed recovery resources, and find programs that may support your needs.
Recovery should strengthen communities—not replace them.
Altadena CDC exists to help ensure that recovery benefits the people who built Altadena. We design and coordinate the systems, partnerships, and pathways necessary to preserve ownership, prevent displacement, and support long-term community prosperity.
Three commitments guide everything we do.
Because true recovery is measured not only by what is rebuilt, but by who is able to return home and remain home.
Recovery is a journey.
