WASHINGTON, DC, Dec. 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Today, the Center for Community Investment (CCI)<\/a> announced that as of January 21, 2025, Founding Executive Director Robin Hacke will transition to a Senior Fellow role and Omar Carrillo Tinajero, a long-time staff member who currently serves as Director of Programs, will step into the position of Executive Director.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Since its founding, CCI has helped communities across the country create equitable, effective investment systems that can achieve their visions so all residents flourish. As CCI deepens its emphasis on network and influence activities–connecting and supporting people who are doing systems change and equity work in communities and finding new ways to shift thinking and influence practice about equitable community investment–Carrillo Tinajero is ideally suited to steward its next stage.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter eight years of building a cadre of innovative practitioners and supporting the emergence of \u2018bright spots\u2019 that show the field inspiring examples of how things can be done differently, we are at a pivot point in the life of CCI,\u201d said Hacke. \u201cOmar is brilliant, with exceptionally good judgment, a successful track record of leading people and programs to impressive results, and the character and commitment to CCI to take the organization forward. I am excited to support him as he takes on this important role and to continue to work to build the capacity of community investment leaders as a CCI Senior Fellow.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Starting in 2017 with his leadership of the Connect Capital<\/a> initiative and continuing as Director of Programs<\/a>, Carrillo Tinajero has been instrumental in developing and leading innovative community investment initiatives that have advanced housing, climate resilience, and equitable economic development efforts across the country. Prior to joining CCI, Carrillo Tinajero worked in housing, health, and community development policy in Oregon. He earned a Master in Urban Planning from Harvard and a Bachelor\u2019s from Princeton University.<\/p>\n

\u201cI came to CCI because I was excited by the challenge of creating equitable investment systems that center the people and communities most impacted by structural racism,\u201d said Carrillo Tinajero. \u201cRobin\u2019s leadership, vision, and dedication have generated a powerful movement of people and places who are ready and equipped to do things differently. Now we have the opportunity to significantly grow that movement. I look forward to continuing to partner with Robin as we take CCI\u2019s work into the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

Under Hacke\u2019s leadership, the organization grew from two to 16 staff members, built three ongoing leadership development programs, developed and facilitated 13 national and local programs, and secured funding from major national foundations. Over 120 innovative community development and finance practitioners have participated in CCI\u2019s leadership development programs and are now advancing its approach in key roles in community development, housing, health, finance, philanthropic, and public sector organizations and agencies around the country. Across the country, alumni of CCI\u2019s programs are using the organization’s approach to make a significant difference in their communities–from Maine to Texas, Appalachia to Southern California, and dozens of states and regions in between.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Moving forward, Carrillo Tinajero will lead the organization\u2019s expansion into new areas, such as climate and shared ownership, while building its network and increasing its influence in the field. As a Senior Fellow, Hacke will continue to work full-time at CCI, focusing on thought leadership, influence, and mentorship for program participants and the organization\u2019s growing network.<\/p>\n

“As a supporter of CCI since its inception, we have witnessed the organization grow and thrive under the vision of Robin and Co-Founder Marian Urquilla. Given the thoughtful and intentional focus on this transition, we are excited about the next chapter under Omar’s leadership,” said Monica Valdes Lupi, managing director of the Kresge Foundation\u2019s Health Program.<\/p>\n
