The Board and staff of The Housing Partnership believe that healthy and affordable homes strengthen and stabilizes families and neighborhoods. Creating affordable housing opportunities and assisting existing residents with repairs so they can remain in their homes is an integral part of our work. Hear from a grateful Lemay homeowner who received plumbing repairs at her home:
“It is important to me that I stay here as long as I can. I really didn’t know how I was going to make these repairs on my own. I'm extremely grateful to the local Plumbers and Pipefitters Union for their help in fixing my home, along with The Housing Partnership's coordination in making it happen.”
-R.P., Lemay resident
