HELP US ADVOCATE FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING SOLUTIONS IN DURHAM

WHY HABITAT?

Despite Durham’s prosperity, many of our neighbors struggle to find safe, comfortable, and affordable housing. Durham has over 2,500 homeless residents, and one in five of our neighbors lives in poverty. A little more than 36 percent of Durham’s occupied housing units have housing problems, meaning that 35,000 Durham renters and homeowners have difficulty.

Their housing problems include:

Habitat for Humanity of Durham refuses to accept this. We believe that it is our responsibility to eliminate substandard housing in Durham and help foster thriving communities. We envision a Durham where decent, affordable, and sustainable housing is available to all.
