Empowering Affordable Housing Residents

Resident Engagement means bringing front and center the people who represent the Bay Area’s roughly 200,000 affordable housing residents. It means bringing them to the attention of our movement, our industry, our lawmakers, our media, and our communities. These residents represent a diversity of backgrounds and life experiences and their stories matter. These Bay Area neighbors are a powerful collective voice, and they belong at the table.

As we work towards home for all, we’re proud to partner with resident services staff to uplift the voices and experiences of affordable housing residents, the people who are directly impacted by our movement’s progress. NPH offers professional development programming for resident services staff as well as resources, tools, and trainings that are designed to grow their engagement and impact.
