The Historic East Baltimore Community Action Coalition, Inc., (HEBCAC) is a nonprofit partnership, based in the community, established to enhance the quality of life for all who live, work and visit Historic East Baltimore. HEBCAC was founded in October of 1994 as the result of a two-year planning process that included neighborhood associations, business owners, Johns Hopkins Medical Institution representatives and government officials. The resulting master plan called for action on three fronts: community development, physical development and economic development. In short, the HEBCAC plan is a comprehensive development agenda to transform the Historic East Baltimore community.

Since 1995 HEBCAC has actively sought to implement the master plan through a range of social, physical and economic initiatives. These initiatives facilitate cooperation, broker assistance, and provide direct services to promote sustained community revitalization.

HEBCAC is governed by a 16-member Board representing the Community, the City of Baltimore, Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions, and the State of Maryland. The organization currently employs a staff of thirty.

As an inclusive organization, HEBCAC seeks participation from every segment of the community – homeowners, renters, seniors, youth, institutions, businesses, and members of the faith community. We recognize and respect the diversity of our community and we value community empowerment.
