The Association for Neighborhood and Housing Development is a membership organization of New York City non-profit neighborhood housing groups. Our mission is to ensure flourishing neighborhoods and decent, affordable housing for all New Yorkers. We pursue this mission by supporting the programs and advancing the priorities of our member organizations engaged in community development and community organizing in low-and moderate-income neighborhoods throughout the City.



We have 102 member organizations composed of CDCs, community organizing groups and supportive housing providers. Our members have successfully rebuilt blighted neighborhoods and have preserved poor and working class communities as safe and decent places to live. The NYC non-profit housing sector has developed over 80,000 units of low- and moderate-income housing; the ANHD membership directly operates over 30,000 units, providing housing for 100,000 people. In addition to housing programs, our membership has also sponsored exciting and innovative commercial revitalization projects, engaged in workforce development initiatives and obtained substantial improvements in quality of life in the areas of public safety, education, child care and open spaces for the neighborhood people they serve.
