Welcome!

The Hyattsville CDC is dedicated to the revitalization and sustainable development of the Hyattsville community. Founded in the fall of 2000 by community activists, our mission is to develop arts, entertainment, and public spaces; spur economic development and the quality of community life; encourage widespread leadership for community revitalization; and to rebuild the City's commercial corridors. We are both excited and confident in our role as a vital part of Hyattsville’s continuing growth.

Feel free to contact us to share how, together, we can help shape the Hyattsville community.
