Mission

Housing Collaborative makes affordable housing easier to navigate by helping to secure rental housing for those experiencing homelessness; for those who have lost housing due to disaster or displacement; and for those experiencing housing instability. We make it easier for housing providers to work with program-connected households by expediting inspections, making quick housing payments, and remaining involved and supportive throughout tenancy.

Activities or mission (Part I)

To make affordable housing easier to navigate

We work in collaboration with other mission-based organizations by leveraging their supportive services and/or programmatic resources with our housing expertise and housing-related resources. We are committed to second chances, and to using our journeys to help others. Many of our dedicated team members have experienced barriers to housing and employment like justice system involvement, homelessness, or domestic violence.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
