Our programs

What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?

Community Housing & Supportive Services

WHCHC builds architecturally distinguished buildings that reflect and complement their surrounding neighborhoods. At the same time, our projects make efficient use of scarce public and private resources by carefully controlling costs. After buildings are completed, we maintain a high standard of asset management by managing our own portfolio. Our Enhanced Management program provides support for long-term tenancies, often assisting residents to live independently, for a longer period of time. A Resident Manager at each site has standard property management responsibilities, but also keeps an eye out for residents who are struggling with day-to-day chores. A Resident Services Coordinator visits households, monitors their needs for social services, and links them with community service providers when necessary.
