About Vietnamese American Initiative for Development (VietAID)
VietAID was founded in 1994 by community leaders and residents who believed that forming a community development corporation (CDC) would provide comprehensive economic development programs and services to alleviate poverty and advance civic participation in the Fields Corner and Vietnamese community of Dorchester. VietAID’s mission is to build a strong Vietnamese community and a vibrant Fields Corner through: promoting civic engagement and community building; developing affordable housing and commercial space; enriching youth leadership; offering high quality child and senior care, and providing diverse direct and social services.
VietAID has pursued a development strategy that has linked housing, small business development, and transit assets with opportunities to build a vibrant, diverse and sustainable community. We began with the planning and development of the Vietnamese American Community Center (VACC), which was completed in 2002. To date, VietAID has leveraged over $70 million of public and private financing to support our Community Center, a community garden, and six affordable rental housing projects – all of which are located within a half-mile radius of our Community Center in Fields Corner, and rapid transit lines.
As of September 2024, Viet AID has developed 164 units of affordable rental housing and 11,234 square feet of commercial space. A 36-unit senior housing project, a potential homeownership project, and several refinancing and capital improvement projects are in our pipeline. We continue to serve our community with child care, youth development, elder support and community engagement activities. We have a staff of 23, a board of 8, and a 2024 operating budget of $2.1 million.
