About Us

We provide decent, safe, sanitary and affordable housing in order to promote viable urban communities and sustainable living environments, principally for extremely low-income to moderate-income families and individuals. We also provide assistance to programs that expand economic opportunity and community development.

We manage more than 6,500 public housing apartments and provide financial help through the federal Section 8 program to more than 19,000 families. Our support services include assisted living facilities for the elderly and self-sufficiency programs for our tenants. We rely on federal and state grant programs to fund our programs. We work closely with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) on our public housing and, with the State of Florida, the development of affordable housing.
