Mission
The Center for Creative Land Recycling (CCLR) accelerates economic development by helping communities transform blighted, contaminated, and underutilized properties into engines of opportunity. Through targeted education, strategic partnerships, and hands-on technical assistance, CCLR equips local leaders to overcome redevelopment barriers and unlock sites for investment, job creation, and long-term resilience. From rural towns and tribal lands to urban neighborhoods, CCLR catalyzes land reuse as a pathway to revitalization and inclusive growth.
