How We Make A Difference
Affordable Housing
Regardless of the scale and population served, each Mercy Housing community is built with an unwavering commitment to dynamic partnerships, creative vision, and extensive community planning. We develop affordable, program-enriched housing for low- and moderate-income populations throughout the United States.
Resident Services
Resident Services support Mercy Housing residents in living to their full potential by providing services and resources in the following areas: Health and Wellness, After-School Programs, Financial Stability, Community Involvement, and Housing Stability. Today, we have Resident Services available at approximately 75 percent of our properties, so that all residents can benefit from the support and assistance that Mercy Housing provides. Our goal is to have them at every Mercy Housing community.
Affordable Housing Community Development
Mercy Community Capital, an affiliate of Mercy Housing, offers loans and support to communities and infrastructure projects that create and sustain affordable housing. By collaborating with socially-responsible developers, Mercy Community Capital has helped finance the development of single and multifamily homes for rental and homeownership
