REACH Riverside (Redevelopment Education and Community Health), is a non-profit community development corporation created to lead the $575 million revitalization of the Riverside neighborhood under the nationally acclaimed, and Warren Buffett funded, Purpose Built Communities model, to include 700-units of mixed-income housing and a new state of the art KCC; REACH has been officially named as the nineteenth of twenty-eight network affiliates of Purpose-Built Communities. 

REACH and KCC are working in partnership with The Warehouse, a co-working facility and network for teen-serving organizations designed to address violence, academic performance, and workforce readiness amongst Wilmington’s youth by providing them with access to more than 150 teen-focused program and service providers. Capital One donated the former 43,000 square foot Prestige Academy building, and The Warehouse invested $3 million of renovations into the facility, transforming it to a modern, open-floor concept designed “for teens, by teens”. Since opening its doors, The Warehouse has welcomed nearly 1,430 teens as members, and over 300 have been employed by the teen community center since 2021.
