Crestview Terrace
Crestview Terrace is a collective impact approach to neighborhood revitalization, reflecting the hopes and dreams of San Bernardino residents, businesses, students, educators, nonprofits, and government leaders who seek a brighter tomorrow. Partnering with the Housing Authority of the County of San Bernardino (HACSB), Crestview Terrace is the third phase of the revitalization of the larger Arrowhead Grove Neighborhood. Guided by years of community engagement and collaborative planning, this RAD housing conversion has transformed a 1940s public housing site into a high-quality affordable housing community that supports residents’ educational, financial, and personal growth.

Building upon six years of planning and community engagement, the City of Ontario partnered with National CORE to create new economic opportunities and improving the health, well-being, and quality of life for all residents.
