About Us

Community Development Programs Center of Nevada, located in Las Vegas, is a non-profit 501C4 corporation founded by Frank Hawkins, Jr. in 1997. CDPCN was established with the express purpose of helping low- to moderate-income families achieve independence and economic empowerment. This is accomplished by assisting a wide range of consumers: including first-time homebuyers; small business owners; and entrepreneurs with the completion of the lending application and packaging process.

CDPCN provides a variety of services to the Las Vegas Valley and specifically its urban areas by building well-planned residential communities and offering counseling services to small business owners. Trained staff review business plans, package business and consumer loans. While providing technical assistance to other non-profit companies, it is our goal to enhance public and private partnerships. As a homebuilder, CDPCN has positioned itself as a competitor of high-volume developers by offering affordable single-family homes with top quality amenities and greater design flexibility. Through our business strategy, CDPCN is able to make available homes priced to sale to low- to moderate-income consumers and still guaranteeing them the highest quality and value for their money.
