Mission Statement

The mission of the JCED is to equip low and moderate-income individuals with resources that promote economic self-sufficiency.

History

The Clinton L. Johnson Center for Economic Development is the brainchild of Mobile City Councilman Clinton L. Johnson.  His concept was to create a resource center that would not only provide Mobilians in and around his council district with job training, but also
transition people from public assistance to economic independence.

Facility

The 25, 000 sq.ft. center includes administrative offices, business resource library,  retail store, small business incubator, and a child development center.
