NHS’ core mission is to increase homeownership; to make homes functional, beautiful and affordable; and to help residents take charge of their neighborhoods.

Neighborhood Housing Services of New Haven (NHS) was incorporated in 1979.  We believe that increased owner-occupancy rates, educated homebuyers, and rehabilitated houses will produce stable, revitalized neighborhoods that our clients will be proud to call home.  During the course of its 30-year history, NHS has fully renovated and sold nearly 300 houses to low- and moderate-income families.  Through the New Haven HomeOwnership Center, NHS puts approximately 500 families a year on the path to homeownership through its homebuyer education classes.

Since its inception, NHS has emerged as a premiere provider of affordable, sustainable homeownership opportunities and homebuyer education in the Greater New Haven area and a champion of neighborhood revitalization throughout the region.

NHS is a chartered member of the national NeighborWorks^® Network.
