Accessible Housing Austin!

Accessible Housing Austin! Providing and promoting Accessible, Affordable and Integrated housing opportunities for people with disabilities and their families in Austin, Texas. AHA!

is the only affordable housing non-profit in Austin led by members of the disability community. AHA!’s homes are integrated into neighborhoods around Austin. believes that we all deserve to live in homes that are not only safe and decent but that allow us to exercise our rights to independence and dignity, that we can afford, and that allow our children and us to participate in our neighborhoods.

For AHA!, the good home is supported by three pillars: Accessibility, Affordability, and Integration. Accessibility = Dignity and Independence
Our houses include the following features that allow our tenants to live comfortably and independently in their own homes:
• Ramps
• Wide doorways
• Levered door handles
• Hardwood, tiled or laminate flooring
• Roll-under sinks
• Lowered countertops
• Smoke detectors for people with hearing and visual impairments
• Roll-in showers where possible

Affordability = Security and Stability
Our tenants are people with disabilities who would otherwise be priced out of the current housing market or forced to live in institutions. Our housing alleviates the negative effects of poverty and removes uncertainty; our tenants pay rent that is commensurate with their incomes, and AHA! accepts Section Eight vouchers. We also strive to reduce the burden of utility costs by making our houses energy efficient. Integration = Participation in Community
AHA!’s scattered-site model allows our tenants be part of a neighborhood. Living in higher opportunity neighborhoods, they have access to shopping and public transportation; adults are close to community college and children are close to good schools. Our tenants actively participate in the life of the community: their children make friends with other children and their families enjoy neighborhood block parties.

After 9 months of reconstruction, Accessible Housing Austin is excited to share that we are nearing the finish line on our property-wide A/C replacement project!

This work required tenants to temporarily relocate while upgrades were made in their homes. Throughout the process, our tenants have shown remarkable grace and integrity, and we are deeply grateful for their patience and partnership as we move into the final weeks.

We also extend our gratitude to our many community partners. With your financial support, AHA is able to provide more than just apartments, we provide safe homes and a community where residents can truly thrive.

Summer is quickly approaching! -

As the temperatures rise in Austin, I'm reminded just how critical low-income housing becomes during these hotter months. For so many in our community, escaping the heat isn’t as simple as stepping into an air-conditioned home. One of the things I learned early on when I began working in this fiel...

Thank You for Amplifying Access!

Amplify Austin 2025 has come to a close, and we are overwhelmed with gratitude for every single donor, supporter, and cheerleader who showed up for Accessible Housing Austin.

Because of you, we raised critical funds to continue providing housing solutions for people with disabilities and low-income families right here in Austin.

Together, we unlocked matching dollars, competed for hourly prizes, and most importantly, amplified the message that accessible housing is a right — not a privilege.

To our donors, tenants, staff, and community — thank you for believing in our mission and helping us build a more inclusive Austin.

This work is only possible because of you.

Good Morning! — Let’s Maximize Our Impact — Together!

Amplify Austin is happening right now, and every donation to Accessible Housing Austin helps unlock matching dollars, making your gift go even further to support affordable, accessible housing for people with disabilities and low-income families in our community.

We don’t want to leave a single dollar of available matching funds on the table, and we need your help to make sure we maximize this incredible opportunity!

Your support helps people like one of our tenants, who shared:
"AHA! could have easily just not have worked with us, but instead they were patient and helped us gain our files and the information we needed to move in. We were dealing with a difficult landlord using power tactics — but AHA had our back."

To those who’ve already donated — thank you so much for amplifying AHA! And to those planning to give today — we are so grateful for your support.

Together, we’re creating a more inclusive Austin, where everyone has a place to call home.
