Community Partners for Affordable Housing

Mission

Community Partners for Affordable Housing advances housing justice by building sustainable housing, delivering supportive services, and providing people with a place to call home.

Bottom Line

The Portland Metro Area is facing a housing crisis that is affecting us all. CPAH has been committed for over 30 years to addressing this crisis. We have built (and sustainably maintain) 13 affordable housing communities in Washington and Multnomah Counties, with 4 more properties in our development pipeline. Furthermore, we are committed to keeping our diverse resident households stably housed and offer residents enriching services to help them thrive in their apartment communities. We also support our unhoused friends in Washington County with services to secure them permanent housing and keep them stably housed.

Quote

“A STABLE HOME CREATES A FOUNDATION FOR LIFE. When I was 24, I started doing HIV prevention work.  I learned right away that if someone didn’t have a place to live, everything else was practically impossible.  Housing is a platform and CPAH is housing our seniors, families, people with disabilities, and the next generation.  They have lives to build, communities to make, work to do, and worlds to save.  Creating the platform is the easy part, our residents do the hard stuff."

Rachael Duke, Executive Director
