The Agency is established by state law to develop and manage housing programs for low-income families. It enters into an Annual Contributions Contract with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to administer these programs. Fresno Housing is responsible for ensuring compliance with federal laws, regulations, and notices. To achieve this, it must establish clear policies and procedures that clarify federal requirements and ensure consistency in program operations. Today, the Agency provides housing programs to nearly 50,000 Fresno County residents under a variety of programs including Low Income Public Housing, Housing Choice Vouchers (Section 8), Section 42 Low Income Housing Tax Credits, Migrant Services, Farm Labor Housing, Emergency Housing, and others. Fresno Housing consists of the City of Fresno and the County of Fresno, each of which are governed by a seven-member Board of Commissioners. The City Board is appointed by the Mayor. Five of the seven commissioners are appointed to four-year, staggered terms. The other two members are appointed to two-year terms from among the residents of housing owned by the Housing Authority. The County Board of Commissioners is structured in the same manner, except that the County Commissioners are appointed by the County Board of Supervisors. - Fresno Housing's Vision: Thriving, inclusive communities where every individual has access to affordable, safe, and sustainable housing, fostering a foundation for personal growth, health, and communal well-being. - Fresno Housing's Mission: Create and sustain affordable housing and vibrant communities throughout Fresno County. - Fresno Housing's Values: People-Centered, Integrity, Affordability & Accessibility, Equity & Inclusion, Engaged Communities, Accountability, and Sustainability. - Fresno Housing's Strategic Goals: To accomplish its mission, the Agency focuses on four primary strategies as it works toward creating inclusive, vibrant, and sustainable communities: o Target & Invest in Neighborhoods: We will be the leading catalyst in creating vibrant, diverse, and inclusive communities by investing in and supporting neighborhoods across Fresno City & County.
