CORPORATION THAT PROVIDES SERVICES AND SUPPORT TO OUR COMMUNITY
Community Services of Nevada (CSNV), formerly known as the East Las Vegas Community Development Corporation (ELVCDC), is a 501(c)3 HUD Approved corporation, established in 1996. The corporation began as an organization of volunteers who met once a week to discuss the benefits of establishing a development corporation within their community.
Working closely with the Local Initiative Support Corporation (LISC) development team, community residents and social service providers joined to form the East Las Vegas Community Outreach Corporation. The ELVCDC was a unified organization whose mission was to improve the quality of life by strengthening communities through public and private sector investments.
