Mission Statement and Values

The Housing Authority Mission:

Our mission is to provide and develop quality affordable housing opportunities for individuals and families while promoting self-sufficiency and neighborhood revitalization.

The Housing Authority Values:

  • We believe that housing is a basic right and a foundation for success in life.  All of us benefit when our citizens have a safe place to call home.
  • While housing is a foundation, it is not enough to simply have a roof over one’s head.  We support to the best of our abilities the lives of our residents with excellent programs for their individual growth and welfare.
  • We create communities that are safe and peaceful.  Our residents are part of their neighborhood and society as a whole.  We are proud of the communities we help create and the housing we build and manage.
  • We believe that people should be able to choose the housing that best meets their individual needs, and that those needs evolve and change.  We work hard to appreciate and support our residents throughout the evolution of their lives circumstances.
  • We deserve the public’s support and confidence for the resources they entrust in our agency.  We understand that resources are finite and that our programs and services must be energy efficient, sustainable and economically viable.
  • We respect and celebrate the whole person, whether resident or employee.  Our work culture responds to individual needs and the benefit of the whole.  We are fair.  We listen to everyone associated with our efforts.
