Overview

Mission

Low-income cooperative housing guided by the principles of affordability, perpetuity, dweller-control, sustainability, diversity, and community.

What it reported doing in 2025

Provide 17 low-income apartments to area residents that earn 60% or less of area median income.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 96% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
