We provide financial and program support to create and preserve opportunities for quality, affordable housing for Oregonians of lower and moderate income. Our vision is that all Oregonians have the opportunity to pursue prosperity and to live free from poverty. Across Oregon, housing has emerged as a paramount concern. The lack of available housing, high rents and home prices are driving rapid increases in gentrification, housing instability and homelessness. The data is clear: too many Oregonians are without a safe, stable and affordable place to call home. The Statewide Housing Plan is a bold new agenda that articulates how Oregon Housing and Community Services will pave the way for more Oregonians to have access to stable housing opportunities necessary for self-sufficiency and to address past policies and programs that have created – and perpetuate - racial inequities in housing. It lays the foundation for OHCS to be a data- and research-driven organization, and proposes a new way of collaborating and focusing resources and energy to address the most pressing housing issues facing Oregon today. Our plan lays out ambitious goals to increase access to housing, including goals and strategies to prevent and address homelessness.
