The Low Income Housing Institute owns and operates housing for the benefit of low-income, homeless and formerly homeless people and administers a range of supportive service programs to assist those they serve in maintaining stable housing and increasing their self-sufficiency. Their efforts include providing program participants with case management, life skills training, technology access and training, financial literacy training and savings programs, and activities for children in LIHI housing.


Mission Statement: Perhaps LIHI’s greatest strength is our sense of mission and our commitment to social justice through our housing development, management and advocacy work. While LIHI has grown to be a more mature organization, our sense of spirit and determination to do the right thing and serve as a catalyst for change remains!

I enjoyed reading about your mission and even answering your questionaire. However, I am very interested in applying to rent at one of your properties. The process is a little cumbersome for me as I am a work release inmate reintegrating back into society and do not have access or the permissions to access the necessary facebook or twitter pages to properly apply. Is there any other alternative method to apply? Could I possibly even apply directly at the property for residence? Please let me know as I am at a loss about how to best proceed. Thank you and have a great day. MC

I am looking for housing. I am desperate for transitional housing with my service animal. I haven't any substance issues, but need mental health help, counseling, learn skills to re-enter the community making my own living. I dealt with a ton of gaslighting, and need to be lifted up! Help, please, if you can asap.
