  • Revitalizing local commu-nities. We’re transforming distressed communities through well-designed, higher density, mixed-income housing with easy access to supportive services, mass transit and job opportunities. Parks, trails, community spaces, and art complete the vision.

  • Providing quality, afford-able housing. Our subsidized properties are so attractive that they look as good as or better than those in the surrounding community.

  • Strengthening families, fostering self-sufficiency. KCHA is building or expanding community facilities at many of our properties to keep families healthy, help children succeed in school and their parents attain job skills to become economically self-sufficient.

  • Investing in smart growth and a sustainable future. We incorporate environmental considerations into everything we do including building “green” and better integrating housing with transit, shopping, services, recreation, and access to jobs.

  • Helping youth achieve academic success. Working with a network of partners, KCHA provides a variety of resources – from after-school tutoring and enrichment classes to computer labs −to help our kids succeed in school and in life.

  • Addressing the region’s housing needs. Every night, KCHA ensures that more than 18,000 of our communities’ poorest and most vulnerable families have a place to call home.
