  • We own & operate nearly 90 properties throughout Cuyahoga County, including five Permanent Supportive Housing Projects in partnership with Cleveland Housing Network.

  • We administer over 20 affordable housing programs throughout Cuyahoga County, which includes one of the largest Shelter Plus Care programs in the country.

  • We proudly serve nearly 3,000 low income individuals and families monthly.

  • Our success is due in large part to our partnerships with over 60 social service partners and governmental agencies.
