Do you believe…

Every person has a right to housing? In the power of community? Affordable housing contributes to a just society?

Then you might be the next Campus-based Supporting Housing Manager for Housing for New Hope!

Why?

Durham faces an affordable housing crisis that is unusually complex. Serving our most vulnerable neighbors requires a multifaceted approach. In one year, two-bedroom rental rates jumped 26% and one-bedroom rates jumped 34%. For many in our community, this took affordable housing from out of reach to out of sight. According to some national experts, we are facing challenges that are without parallel and that puts more of our neighbors on the street or in imminent danger of homelessness. Housing for New Hope (HNH) is responding to the affordable housing crisis by stepping forward with expanded supportive services, improved housing location and navigation, and a renewed effort to expand its own inventory of affordable housing units. Over the last 2.5 years, HNH’s revenue has grown more than 50% to a budget of $4M, the team expanded from 14 to 25 staff, and private support increased by more than 25%.
