Mission Statement
The mission of Compass Affordable Housing, Inc. is to improve the quality of family and community life by developing, producing and managing low-cost affordable housing with support services. We strive to increase efforts that make housing affordable on the local, state and national level.
About This Cause
Compass Affordable Housing, Inc. (CAH) believes that all people, no matter their income, should have the opportunity to live in safe, decent and affordable housing. We believe that housing is healthcare and support efforts that expand and strengthen housing and services for low and moderate-income persons, including those with special needs. Compass Affordable Housing’s ability to coordinate resources necessary to tackle challenging affordable housing design, development, and financing has made it a leader in partnering with communities to address housing needs. CAH and staff partnerships with community groups, investors, federal and state agencies, as well as local municipalities, have brought millions of dollars of investment to help invigorate communities and distressed neighborhoods. We have a wealth of experience supervising and directing project management teams including architects, realtors, contractors, financing professionals, lenders, and consultants. We pride ourselves on being able to make significant, positive differences in communities and neighborhoods. CAH provides housing support services and referrals to the community at large. At each of CAH’s housing communities we provide a tenant services program unique to that site to support residents and assist them to maintain their housing and meet their daily needs, regardless of income, while they are living in high quality, affordable housing. We provide individualized support services to tenants to access the services they need. CAH implements housing assistance and support services to formerly homeless, single parent and transitioning households. We provide case management, referrals, financial assistance and advocacy to and for low-income and single head of households seeking to re-stabilize their families and lives. We help families obtain and maintain stable housing while in job training, school and newly employed. CAH has active partnerships with community groups, and agencies that provide referrals, education, financial and non- cash assistance, training, etc. CAH staff and its board have a variety of backgrounds including being active in grassroots advocacy, being single parents, being in recovery from substance abuse, being low-income, having special needs and serving in the United States military. Not only do we strive to be a voice we also strive to help people have their own voice and to be successful getting their needs met. We advocate on behalf of the families we work with and we help families believe in their own dignity and ability to get their needs met. CAH encourages its staff and volunteers to initiate the steps required to ensure that families maintain stable housing, access benefits they are eligible for, receive the services that are supposed to get and are supported through emergencies.
