Atlanta Housing

On June 11, 1938, the Atlanta Housing Authority (AHA) was the first-ever public housing authority established in the U.S. when the City of Atlanta passed a resolution declaring the need for safe, affordable housing for families facing financial difficulty. Under Georgia law, we are commissioned to develop, acquire, lease and operate affordable housing for low-income people and families. We are a leader in transforming public housing and providing affordable communities for families, seniors and the disabled. In 1996, AHA spearheaded the model for mixed-income, mixed-use communities where residents can thrive in quality, healthy living environments and advance to self-sufficiency. AHA is the largest housing agency in Georgia and one of the largest in the nation. We are a real estate development company that serves nearly 50,000 people, including families in 16 mixed-income communities, 13 residential properties (11 senior high-rise buildings and two family communities) and AHA`s Housing Choice Voucher Program participants. Our mission is to provide quality affordable housing in amenity-rich, mixed-income communities for the betterment of the community.

Nevada Rural Housing Authority

Shelter is a basic human need – essential for accomplishing almost everything we need and want to do. From getting a job and raising a family to cooking dinner and celebrating a birthday. Yet for many rural Nevadans safe, affordable shelter is out of reach. In 1973, the Nevada Rural Housing Authority (NRHA) was created to address this need. NRHA was originally created as a state agency in 1973 and operated under the Department of Business and Industry as a Public Housing Authority. In 1995, NRHA was separated from State government by new legislation and became a quasi-governmental unit with its own five-member governing board appointed by the Nevada League of Cities and Nevada Association of Counties. In 2005, legislation AB372 clarified our jurisdiction and programs and established that our organization is not subject to the state budgetary process enabling us to be more diverse and innovative in our services. Working with a consortium of public, private, and social partners, NRHA provides affordable housing and economic development solutions for rural Nevada. We believe when more Nevadans are able to purchase a home of their own or can find affordable rental units, we all benefit through stronger more stable and economically vital communities. In 2006, NRHA launched the Home At Last™ home financing program to expand homeownership opportunities in the rural parts of the state. In 2009 NRHA launched our real estate division and become more active in helping rural cities and counties address a broader scope of economic development challenges.
