We bring people together to build homes, communities, and hope.
People in your community and all over the world partner with Habitat for Humanity to build or improve a place they can call home. Habitat homeowners build their own homes alongside volunteers and pay an affordable mortgage. With our help, those homeowners achieve the independence they need to build a better life for themselves and their families.
May is Affordable Housing Month – How Habitat for Humanity of Sonoma County is Building Change
The Challenge: Affordable Housing in our Community
Sonoma County is a thriving, diverse place to live. But with growth comes a rising cost of living, and for too many, that means housing is simply out of reach.
In Sonoma County:
- Over 45% of renters are considered severely cost-burden, meaning they experience difficulty paying rent throughout the year (8-12 months per year).
- Aging housing stock and limited affordable options leave many residents living in unsafe or unstable conditions.
Behind these numbers are real people, parents working multiple jobs to keep a roof over their heads, seniors choosing between medication and repairs, and young adults struggling to stay near family and support systems. It’s a quiet crisis with loud consequences. Learn more…
