Addressing the Local Housing Crisis
Santa Clara County is in a striking housing crisis, experiencing some of the highest housing costs in the nation. As a part of the solution to this challenge, SCCHA builds communities by developing quality housing offered at affordable rents. These development activities include site acquisition, community outreach, site and building planning and design, and construction.
SCCHA is a Good Neighbor and Community Member
In addition to providing housing to those most in need in our community, SCCHA is an active part of our community and strives to be a good neighbor.
