⸺ Mission ⸺

Area Housing Commission is a local public housing agency created under state law for the purpose of providing safe, decent, and quality affordable housing and supportive services to eligible persons with limited incomes through HUD funding.

⸺ Vision ⸺

Area Housing Commission does more than handle the day-to-day demands of providing affordable housing solutions to lower income families, seniors and the disabled. We strive to craft solutions to our community’s affordable housing dilemma in a holistic manner and turn these solutions into reality. Our dedicated Board of Commissioners and staff ensure that AHC continues to be a well-managed, compassionate, and effective service provider as opposed to a public bureaucracy. We recognize and value the diversity of each individual client/resident and staff member. The results of this vision are many and include a hardworking, high-quality, and fiscally-sound organization with objectives, goals, and measurable achievements.
