We provide resources and develop integrated statewide policy to increase access to stable housing for all Oregonians.
About us
Oregon Housing and Community Services (OHCS) is Oregon's housing finance agency, providing financial and program support to create and preserve opportunities for quality, affordable housing for Oregonians of lower and moderate income. We envision an Oregon where all can pursue prosperity and live free from poverty. OHCS administers programs that provide housing stabilization – from preventing and ending homelessness, assisting with utilities to keep someone stable, to financing multifamily affordable housing, to encouraging homeownership. It delivers these programs primarily through grants, contracts and loan agreements with local partners and community-based providers, and has limited direct contact with low-income beneficiaries. OHCS's sources of funds are varied and include federal and state resources which have complex regulatory compliance requirements, and thus stewardship, compliance monitoring, and asset management are all critical functions played by OHCS. MISSION: We provide stable and affordable housing and engage leaders, to develop integrated statewide policy that addresses poverty and provides opportunity for Oregonians.

OHCS is honored to have been featured in the Summer 2024 issue of Affordable Housing News. The article highlights programs we've worked hard on that go beyond just four walls and a roof. "We are in service to housing progress, and we're really looking at it from a broader prism because that is what this moment calls for," said OHCS Director Andrea Bell. "So, we're thinking about 'housing, and.'" Read the full article starting on page 54: t.ly/d0oG4

In 2019, OHCS made a goal to fund 1,000 units of permanent supportive housing (PSH) over the 5-year period of our Statewide Housing Plan. We exceeded this goal by 167% for a total of 1,668 PSH homes across 56 projects. One of those projects was the recently opened cottage cluster on Warm Springs Reservation, pictured here. PSH is a housing model that provides wraparound supports for those experiencing chronic homelessness. Developments often include offices for onsite caseworkers and other resident services. During the last 5 years, we worked with Corporation for Supportive Housing to host an annual Supportive Housing Institute for teams to develop PSH homes across the state. The Institute has proven a huge success, providing direct, technical support for specific projects and bringing concepts to reality, such as the Warm Springs development. We’re honored to have worked with the Confederated Tribe of Warm Springs on this project, and we’re grateful to all the other partners who’ve worked with us on getting these 1600+ homes on the ground.
