The team at Southside Community Development and Housing Corporation (SCDHC) recently completed a new expansion beyond Richmond and Petersburg into Emporia, Virginia. The city sits an hour south of the capital just off Interstate 95 and eight miles away from North Carolina. Under the leadership of CEO Dianna Bowser, the non-profit bought a tract of land near downtown, removed nine condemned mobile homes, organized infrastructure improvements, and then built four top-quality homes that have now hit the market.
