Aiming to create vibrant, revitalized, sustainable, transit-oriented, and mixed-income communities of choice, the Denver Housing Authority provides affordable housing to more than 26,000 individuals representing over 10,000 very low- to medium-income families in Denver. Governed by a nine-member Board of Commissioners appointed by the Mayor of Denver, DHA owns and operates over 3,900 conventional public housing units, nearly 700 subsidized multi-family units, and about 200 other locally funded housing units. Its homeownership program aims to help residents become “loan ready,” and includes a matched savings component—providing a 1:1 match for every dollar saved up to $1,500. To date, the program has helped 175 DHA residents become homeowners.
