Hacienda CDC

Mission

Hacienda Community Development Corporation’s mission is to strengthen families by providing affordable housing, homeownership support, economic advancement, and educational opportunities.  

We believe that everyone, regardless of their background, deserves safe, stable housing, and the chance to achieve their dreams. As a Latin(o/a/e/x)-led organization, we bring forth a rich culture and an unwavering commitment to support communities of color and low-income families and individuals across Oregon. 

Please join us in our efforts. 

Bottom Line for Portland

We are deeply committed to providing housing opportunities that empower individuals and families, with twelve community-centered affordable housing communities and over 900 homes in Portland, Gresham, Molalla, and Oregon City.  We also go beyond housing to deliver programs and services that empower and strengthen our communities, like after-school programs, homeownership counseling, state-of-the-art learning centers that advance STEM, digital literacy and workforce readiness, and technical assistance for entrepreneurs to start or grow a business.  

We are excited about what Hacienda has on the horizon for 2025: we plan to complete construction on Dolores, a 67-affordable homes community in Hillsboro and break ground on El Nido, a 55-affordable homes community in Lake Oswego. Additionally, our community suffered a tragic loss early this year when the Portland Mercado was severely impacted by a fire that tore through the building. We are pleased to announce that Hacienda has entered the permitting phase in its efforts to rebuild the Mercado. Our rebuilding is not just reconstruction but an opportunity for us to apply the valuable lessons learned from the previous design of the building and business model. This will ensure a more thoughtful and successful rebuild, resulting in a more inclusive and inviting space for businesses to thrive and for the community to return to a better, more comfortable, and charming space.

"What Hacienda has done for all of us here in the building, aside from giving us a place to live, is getting closer as a community. That has been so special, because many of us who live here in the building have new beginnings. A new opportunity maybe because they come from a vulnerable situation, or were houseless, or maybe like me, come from countries that are very far or very vulnerable, and this becomes a refuge for all of us, where we can live together, get along, and get ahead." - Deimis, Las Adelitas Resident

"Lo que ha hecho por todos nosotros acá en el edificio Hacienda, además de darnos un lugar donde vivir, es acercarnos como comunidad. Eso ha sido súper especial porque muchas de las personas que están viviendo acá en el edificio tienen nuevos inicios. Una nueva oportunidad. Ya sea porque estuvieron en una situación de vulnerabilidad o porque no tenían casa o porque, así como yo, vienen de países que están muy lejos o muy vulnerables, y esto es como un refugio para todos nosotros en el que podemos convivir, llevarnos bien y salir adelante. Creo que eso es lo que ha hecho Hacienda por nosotros, por mi y por toda la comunidad que vive acá.” - Deimis, Residente de Las Adelitas
