Making Homes Come True - creating & preserving quality, affordable housing communities that foster resident success
About us
Homes for America (HFA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to creating and preserving quality, affordable housing communities that foster resident success and well-being. Since its founding in 1994, HFA has been a pivotal force in the Mid-Atlantic region, focusing primarily on Maryland and expanding efforts in Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. With a mission to provide stable, service-enriched housing, HFA connects residents with essential services and opportunities, ensuring they live with dignity and respect. Our approach is rooted in a holistic understanding of housing as more than just a physical space. At HFA, we believe a home should support health, education, and economic stability. This philosophy drives us to offer a range of resident services, including health and wellness programs, financial assistance, educational opportunities, and community connectivity initiatives. Our Service-Enhanced Housing model ensures that residents are active participants in shaping the programs and services available in their communities. HFA’s commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion is reflected in all aspects of our work. We strive to create inclusive communities where every resident feels safe, respected, and supported. Our development projects prioritize sustainability and environmental stewardship, aligning with our goals to reduce our ecological footprint and build climate-resilient communities. By leveraging partnerships with public, private, and community-based agencies, we provide comprehensive support that enhances residents' quality of life. As we continue to grow and evolve, HFA remains focused on its core values: resident-centered decision-making, high-quality services, dismantling structural racism in housing, and fiscal responsibility. Our dedication to these principles ensures that we not only meet the housing needs of today but also pave the way for a brighter, more equitable future for all our residents.

Designated in 1973, Women's Equality Day commemorates the certification of the 19th Amendment on August 26, 1920, granting women the right to vote. This day not only honors that historic milestone but also brings attention to the ongoing efforts toward full gender equality. Access to safe, affordable, and accessible housing in neighborhoods of choice is essential for the well-being of women, LGBTQIA+ people, and families. Yet, many still face housing instability due to economic inequities, discrimination, and challenges in securing a home that meets their needs. As we reflect on nearly a century of progress, we recognize that gender equality is crucial to our mission at Homes for America. The work women have done over the years has laid the foundation for the progress we continue to build on today, especially in our advocacy for equitable housing. We celebrate the resilient women and allies leading this charge—working to create inclusive communities, combat housing discrimination, and push the boundaries of equality in housing and beyond.
