PROPRIETARY EXPERTISE

Generations Housing Initiatives grew out of The Habitat Affordable Group to create an entity whose primary focus was providing vital services to its low income residents. Our members come from many backgrounds, but what brings us together is a shared passion for making a difference in the lives of affordable housing residents. Our Resident Services Team provides direct, on-site support to residents. They have decades of experience and education in social work and psychology, and speak languages that include Chinese-Mandarin, Polish, and Spanish. We bring a wealth of real estate experience with developers and property managers that allows us to see the bigger picture and create programming tailored to the unique needs of your community.
