What We Believe

• Everyone deserves decent, stable, and affordable housing.
• Beyond housing, everyone deserves the basic necessities to achieve a productive life: respect and encouragement, nutritious and affordable food, education and career growth, affordable transportation and digital access.
• Racism and sexism, structural and individual, exist and we must work to oppose racism and sexism in all their forms – in ourselves, in our work and in our communities.
• Human-caused climate change is real – and our work must do everything in our power to reverse it and make our housing – and our planet– safe.
• Every person deserves to be able to improve their life chances – and we believe in second, third, and more chances.
• Our residents have the right to a voice in their community and their world – we are committed to amplifying their voices to make a difference in their communities.
