Our Mission

Our mission is to assist each person entrusted to our care to enjoy the fullest gift of health possible, and work with others to build a community where a helping hand is available for our most vulnerable members.

Desert Mission Neighborhood Renewal


From helping first time home buyers realize their dream of home ownership to assisting local businesses, Desert Mission Neighborhood Renewal (DMNR) revitalizes North Phoenix communities.

DMNR is part of John C. Lincoln Health Network. Our programs include:

Homeownership

DMNR develops 2- to 4-bedroom energy-efficient homes for homebuyers. Assistance of up to $40,000 per home, from the City of Phoenix, may be provided for first-time homebuyers who are income eligible.

Vogel Condos: The newest DMNR housing project is the 12-unit Vogel Condos, located at 13th and Vogel avenues.

Mission Lane Townhomes: Mission Lane Townhomes development is planned as a 42-unit mixed-income green project.

Down Payment Assistance

Income-eligible homebuyers can receive a match of up to $3 for every $1 saved toward a down payment. Call 602-331-5833.

Homeowner Assistance

DMNR provides services that help income-eligible homeowners with the maintenance of their homes, including replacing the roofing, installing new air conditioners or painting the home's exterior.

To find out if you meet the income eligibility requirements for the programs listed above, please call DMNR at 602-331-5809.

Economic Development

DMNR provides leadership in the implementation of community-driven strategies for economic development, street safety and overall visual appeal in north Phoenix by introducing development resources and facilitating private/public partnerships.

Hatcher Road Project: A group of people representing a cross-section of the community has been developing ideas for improving the appearance and safety along Hatcher Road.
