What is EpiscoBuilders?
EpiscoBuilders is a Episcopal-based outreach program. EpiscoBuilders was formed in 2007 to address the problem of poverty housing and homelessness in the suburbs and to encourage Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity™ to build west of Wayzata, a goal that had not yet been reached at the time.
EpiscoBuilders became a program of Episcopal Community Services (ECS) in 2010 thus extending its potential reach in all directions. EpiscoBuilders was recently involved in the purchase of a home in Mound with monetary assistance from a Hennepin County grant.
