Approach
Design with purpose.
Commitment to wellness.
Foundation of trust.
At Prima, we view each development project as an opportunity to accomplish lasting, positive change for underserved communities. Our approach preserves the vitality and character of our residents and their neighborhoods through purposeful design, wellness advocacy and a trustworthy foundation.
Design with purpose
We implement resourcefulness and creativity into the development stage of each project to achieve innovative outcomes.
Energy Efficiency
We keep sustainability in mind by prioritizing materials and energy sources that reduce our impact on the environment and apply best practices in green construction and development. When ever applicable, we repurpose historical structures or underutilized facilities to adaptively reuse existing locations within the community.
Engagement & Connection
A home is more than just a shelter – it is a place for individuals and families to gather, connect and thrive together. We work closely with our partners in architecture to design housing that not only promotes engagement and connection between residents, but seamlessly integrates into the social and cultural landscape of the community being served.
Commitment to wellness
We are rooted in the belief that healthy and financially empowered residents create vibrant, more sustainable communities.
Healthy Lives
We go beyond housing to promote healthy living and wellness in our residents and the community at large. We encourage vitality and livability in the neighborhoods we serve by implementing quality healthcare services, wellness programs and vibrant living spaces and common areas into each development project.
Financial Empowerment
At Prima, we understand that financial hardship can negatively affect a person’s well-being. That’s why we provide a wide variety of discussions, classes and workshops that aim to empower our residents to take control of their financial independence and future.
Foundation of trust
We are committed to building strong, trusted relationships with our residents, investors and project partners.
Community Collaboration
We strive to include local community members in our development process to strengthen their collective voice and help shape their future. One third of the skilled workers we hire for each project are from within the communities that we serve.
Financial Integrity
We work closely with our project partners and investors to ensure creative financial solutions for each unique project. Our team creates investment models that are built for the long-term, connecting investors to community assets with sustainable income-producing value.
