The Greater Rochester Housing Partnership was created in
1992 to spur the development of affordable housing in and around Rochester,
NY.
After
extensive deliberation,
a
task force established by then- Mayor Ryan determined that a Partnership
model would be the best tool for increasing the funding and therefore
the volume of affordable housing in our community. The Partnership was
established as a stand alone non-profit corporation with initial capitalization
from the city of Rochester. |
The mission of the Partnership is to create and preserve affordable housing for low and moderate income residents of the greater Rochester area.It's operations are dedicated to: Creating, identifying, obtaining, and managing the financial tools necessary to maintain and develop affordable housing that will build equity and add value to the economic life of its residents and the community in which it is located; Identifying gaps in financing through communication with providers and supporters of affordable housing, seek resources to fill the gaps and efficiently and effectively manage those resources; Overcome financial and other barriers to increasing the availability of affordable housing through partnerships with developers, municipalities, community partners and potential consumers of affordable housing; While focusing on the acute housing needs in the City of Rochester, we will proactively look for opportunities to offer low-income residents choice in housing by stimulating the development of rental and ownership affordable housing in areas within greater Rochester, outside concentrations of poverty with proximity to employment opportunities and other desirable traits.
