Connecticut Main Street Center (CMSC) is a small nonprofit based in Hartford that serves communities across the state as the state coordinating program for Main Street America. The organization works locally with city staff, business owners, and volunteers to revitalize downtowns and position them as the social and economic heart of their towns. At the state level, CMSC advocates for programs and policies that support the Main Street way of life. Its work targets municipalities and neighborhoods seeking to improve downtown vitality, providing coordination and support to implement revitalization efforts across Connecticut. By linking local actors with statewide initiatives, CMSC aims to create inviting, vibrant cores that sustain community life. In 2026, CMSC partnered with NHCOG to launch Phase 2, focused on building a foundation for implementation.
