Avery County Community Housing Coalition

Avery County Community Housing Coalition Applications are accepted and reviewed by our Community Housing Coordinator and then presented to the entire coalition for consideration.

The Community Housing Coalition is a collaboration among agencies, church, civic, and volunteer organizations, combining ideas and resources in order to improve the quality of housing for low-income populations and bridge gaps in social service needs. The Community Housing Coalition works to provide low-income individuals in Avery County with the home repairs they need to improve the quality of th

eir housing and quality of life. This allows organizations with different services to come together to provide streamlined services for each client. For example, a low-income older adult needs a ramp built, some plumbing work done, and a new window or two. While this may be too much for one organization or group to handle on its own, the coalition can split the projects among multiple partners so that the client receives all the services they need and no one organization has to face the entire cost or scope of work to be done. We are always looking for new community partners to join the Coalition and need volunteers to help complete many of our projects! Financial support is critical to make home repairs possible!
