The creation of a local housing authority in a community is evidence that its residents care about their neighbors and about the future of their community. The Grand Junction Housing Authority has been serving the community by providing safe affordable housing for those in need since 1974.
The people who directly benefit from Grand Junction Housing Authority programs are a reflection of the Grand Valley. They are elderly persons living on limited income; they are disabled individuals with special challenges; they are the working poor and the single parent; they are our neighbors and friends.
Our local economy benefits as the Grand Junction Housing Authority brings over $6 million into the Grand Valley community annually in the form of payments made ​​to landlords, vendors, contractors and wages. Assisted families retain more discretionary income to spend at local stores and retail and service businesses. Children achieve more in school when they have a secure home in a friendly neighborhood. Grand Junction Housing Authority projects enhance the entire community.
The City Council, Board of Commissioners and the Grand Junction Housing Authority Staff are proud of the work accomplished on behalf of Grand Junction . We have received several commendations recognizing the quality of our work. We operate within a balanced budget and have established a prudent level of reserves.
Our continuing challenge for the future is to become more financially self-sustaining. Our ability to serve low and moderate income people is largely dependent on federal funding, which is declining. We will become more entrepreneurial and more resilient.
Serving the community by making safe housing affordable.
