Sustainable & Healthy Homes

A safe and affordable home is a key component of a healthy life. That’s why SAHF works to increase the production, preservation, and operation of environmentally sustainable housing as part of a holistic approach to residents’ health. Through SAHF’s work, we work to ensure that affordable housing providers are equipped with the tools to:

  • Implement building design and materials best practices that have a positive impact on residents' health and well-being.
  • Center residents' agency in building design and operations by soliciting resident feedback and applying greater accountability mechanisms
  • Promote health equity and positive health outcomes by increasing access to resources such as exercise spaces and healthy food
