Westhab was founded in 1981 to address the affordable housing crisis in Westchester County. In response to growing homelessness, Westhab expanded its focus to renovate and operate shelters in Westchester. As our organization grew, we looked for ways to improve entire communities by engaging resident leaders and neighborhood stakeholders. Always intent not just on addressing the problem, but working to find a solution, Westhab began to provide employment services and youth programs, supporting families to break the cycle of poverty. We also undertook ground-up development of attractive, new affordable housing residences, including housing targeted toward seniors, veterans, young adults, and the disabled. More Info Here.
