ATLANTA – Colin Edelstein, director of NorSouth Constructs, has been named to the Board of Directors of CaringWorks, Inc., an Atlanta-based non-profit that provides housing and support to the homeless to help stabilize their lives and assist them in moving towards greater self-sufficiency.

“I’m gratified with the Board appointment and look forward to greater involvement with CaringWorks,” said Edelstein. “The organization works with approximately 300 households at any given time, and partners with government agencies, other non-profits and companies that own affordable housing developments. NorSouth Constructs has a history of successfully building affordable multi-family properties for our parent company, NorSouth, as well as for third-party developers, so I am looking forward to offering the organization my expertise in the multi-family housing industry as well as helping CaringWorks forge new alliances with other builders and developers.”

Edelstein joined NorSouth Constructs in 2011. As director, he services existing clients and cultivates new relationships to augment NorSouth’s growing third-party construction portfolio. His experience spans in excess of $600 million in the capitalization of more than 6,000 residential units. Edelstein is a graduate of the University of Georgia and is a member of Georgia Affordable Housing Coalition. He is married with two children and lives in Chamblee, Ga.
