In late May, some of our leaders had the opportunity to visit the We Make Omaha Future Lab. We appreciated taking this time to engage the lab and prioritize plans for Omaha’s future.

Last Wednesday, the Omaha Housing Authority was honored to celebrate the groundbreaking of the Chambers Court redevelopment alongside partner Hoppe Development!

We are grateful to Front Porch Investments, Nebraska Department of Economic Development, Nebraska Investment Finance Authority, Greater Omaha Chamber, and the many other community leaders, elected officials, and project partners who are making this multiphase rehab and new-construction housing project a reality for North Omaha.

We have every confidence that Hoppe Development will respect what Ernie Chambers Court has meant to this neighborhood and will take the vision even further, serving as a catalyst for broader neighborhood revitalization, economic opportunity, and long-term stability.

Thank you to everyone who has called Chambers Court home - past and present. It was our honor to serve you for the last 22 years.

Nothing beats taking time to appreciate the incredible people who make OHA what it is! 🎳🌺

Last Friday, we hosted our Employee Appreciation Bowling Event at Chops Bowling — complete with luau-inspired food, Hawaiian attire, plenty of laughs, and an afternoon dedicated to celebrating our amazing team.

Whether employees chose to bowl with coworkers, enjoy lunch together, or simply take a well-deserved afternoon off to kickstart the weekend, the goal was simple: say THANK YOU to the people who work hard every single day for our residents, families, and each other.

We are grateful for a team that brings dedication, compassion, and positivity to OHA every day — and we loved having the opportunity to spend some fun time together outside the office!

Mahalo to our incredible staff for all that you do! 🌸

We loved seeing our employees come together to focus on health, self-care, wellness, and community connection. From health screenings and wellness resources to local vendors, food, and fun, the event was filled with positive energy and valuable information for our team.

A huge thank you to all of our community partners, vendors, and staff who helped make this event possible. Your support and dedication to employee wellness truly makes a difference!

At OHA, we know that investing in our employees’ well-being helps build a stronger workplace and stronger community. 💙

At our Southside Terrace project, progress goes beyond construction, it’s about community impact.

This redevelopment includes the demolition of 16 existing buildings and the ground-up construction of 20 new buildings, bringing 113 much-needed residential housing units to the area.

In partnership with the Omaha Fire Department, our team is providing space at Southside Terrace for hands-on recruit training. Utilizing the existing structures, firefighters are gaining real-world experience through roof-cutting demonstrations and tactical exercises. It’s a strong example of how collaboration can strengthen both our communities and those who serve them.
