The Community Revitalization Collective at Union Gospel Mission Sioux Falls is neighbors working with neighbors to improve Whittier neighborhood. We plan and execute revitalization projects that strengthen the community from the inside out. We fix things, find solutions, and share God’s love through a diverse range of helping hands. We are local businesses, organizations, property owners, tenants, and unhoused people actively caring for the community. Our projects range from clean up to construction to beautification to praying with neighbors in the hospital. The CRC builds community through heartfelt, hands-on engagement. Here’s a glimpse at a day with the CRC.
