Mission: The broadway re-investment coalition's mission is to facilitate socio-economic revitalization through business development and job creation in low-income and blighted commercial districts along the dixie and tamarind corridors, northwood village, and the broaday corridor extending through west palm beach and riviera beach. Bric pursues its mission by identifying and coordinating the various governmental and community resources available to individuals and businesses in these blighted areas. Because of the substantial disconnect between potential business development and these financial resources, bric fulfills an important service to the community helping business clients take advantage of these opportunities. Bric assists businesses and residents with financial incentives and employment opportunities only available to specific geographic areas, formally identified and designated by local, state and federal agencies.
