Uppermost in Bob Simon’s mind when he founded Reston in 1964 was community. An open community where everyone regardless of income, race or religion was welcomed. A place where everyone could live, work, play and remain throughout their lifetime. The importance and dignity of each individual would be a focal point. 

More than five decades later, Cornerstones continues to be guided by Bob’s pioneering vision. Our signature approach ensures that families, children, seniors and other neighbors suffering from homelessness, isolation, or living in poverty can access resources that offer stability, empowerment, and hope for healthy and connected lives.
