The Peninsula Community Foundation of Virginia is excited to announce the establishment of its new Center for Community Research, aimed at empowering and strengthening the Virginia Peninsula region through data-driven insights and innovative solutions.
​
The Center for Community Research (CCR) marks a significant milestone in the Foundation's commitment to fostering positive change in the communities it serves. By leveraging cutting-edge research methodologies and technology, the CCR will analyze critical social issues, assess community needs, and identify opportunities for sustainable growth and development.

Our Chief Executive Officer, Michael Monteith said, "Our vision is to build a thriving and interconnected Virginia Peninsula where every individual has access to opportunities for growth and prosperity". The Center for Community Research will be a powerful tool in realizing this mission to create lasting impact and address the most pressing challenges faced by our diverse communities.

Key objectives of the Center for Community Research will be:
  1. Data-Driven Decision Making: The Center will leverage advanced research methodologies and data analytics to gain deeper insights into the region's challenges and opportunities. This information will inform the Foundation's grant-making process, ensuring resources are efficiently allocated to projects that have the most significant potential for lasting impact.
  2. Collaborative Research Partnerships: To maximize the Center's reach and influence, the Foundation will establish partnerships with academic institutions, local organizations, and subject matter experts. By fostering a collaborative approach, the Center aims to tackle multifaceted issues through diverse perspectives and expertise.
  3. Addressing Critical Community Issues: The Center will prioritize research initiatives that address key societal issues such as education, healthcare, affordable housing, environmental sustainability, and economic empowerment. The goal is to contribute to the development of evidence-based solutions that create a more resilient and equitable community.
  4. Advocacy and Knowledge Sharing: In addition to conducting rigorous research, the Center will actively engage in advocacy efforts and knowledge sharing through publications, workshops, and conferences. By disseminating research findings and best practices, the Center hopes to spark meaningful dialogue and inspire positive change on a broader scale.
​The Foundation invites individuals, businesses, and organizations that share a passion for community-driven progress to support the Center for Community Research's initiatives. Together, we can shape a brighter future for the Virginia Peninsula.
