• Construct mutual self-help (sweat equity) housing and affordable multi-family apartment housing
• Manage rental properties we build and properties owned by others
• Provide farm worker housing
• Provide education and services to residents
• Build and enhance communities

Our organization has built more than 2000 housing units in our seven-county service area and is acknowledged as an innovator and leader in rural housing issues.
