Welcome

In order to bring attention to the mounting problems of affordable housing in the Richmond, Virginia area, The Partnership for Housing Affordability (formerly the Partnership for Workforce Homes) was established as a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization in 2006.

Now a standing committee of the Greater Richmond Chamber, the Partnership supports a coordinated, regional approach to affordable housing issues in the Richmond area. We believe that residents of the Richmond region can live in vibrant and sustainable communities, characterized by a breadth of diversity among the residents, a variety of affordable housing choices, the integration of needed services, the strategic preservation of natural resources, and the efficient use of the public infrastructure, if our community is willing to commit the needed resources and adopt the necessary policies to secure this future now.

The Partnership's mission is to preserve and strengthen the area's economic vitality, attractiveness, and competitiveness by helping the communities of the Richmond region to develop affordable housing opportunities.
