Boston-Thurmond Community Network

Our Mission

The mission of the Boston-Thurmond Community Network is to facilitate and support the vision of Boston-Thurmond residents for a strong and economically viable neighborhood that is fully integrated into the broader Winston-Salem community. The Network helps implement an intertwined approach to community revitalization, consistent with the Purpose Built Communities model, that focuses over the long term on:

  • Quality housing that is affordable and accessible to families at all income levels;
  • A cradle-to-career educational pipeline of excellence; and
  • Community health and wellness that honors the rich history and strength of Boston-Thurmond.

By focusing staff and financial resources, the Network serves as the single point of accountability to
ensure that:

  • All programs are of the highest quality and are seamlessly connected;
  • People in the neighborhood remain the primary beneficiaries of revitalization;
  • A sustainable funding stream is identified and secured.
