For more than four decades, the Council of Community Housing Organizations (CCHO) has led San Francisco’s affordable housing movement. CCHO has been at the forefront of local and regional affordable housing advocacy, organizing, and coalition building a more affordable city. Together, our 21 member organizations have been responsible for over 30,000 new or preserved affordable homes, winning nearly $6.5 billion in dedicated funds for affordable housing, and creating thousands of jobs. Many of these achievements have become national models emulated by other American cities.
The impact of these four decades of accomplishments has been achieved through collective action and coalition-building, the core of CCHO’s work.
