In October 2023, Mayor Wu announced the tentative designation of development teams for Phase I of Welcome Home, Boston. The chosen teams, including the African Community Economic Development Organization of New England (ACEDONE), Boston Communities, Dorchester Design Collaborative, and Norfolk Design and Construction, are state-certified Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) and/or Women Business Enterprise (WBE), Veteran Business Enterprise (VBE), or Black, Indigenous, or people of color (BIPOC) companies known for their commitment to diversity and community support. These teams will develop formerly city-owned vacant parcels in Dorchester into 63 new affordable homes on various streets, creating homeownership opportunities for households with incomes below 80 and 100 percent of the Area Median Income (AMI). These environmentally friendly, fully electric buildings align with the City's goals of promoting generational wealth and reducing environmental impact.
