What is the Affordable Homes Program?
Welcome to Thanksgiving Homes, CCHA’s Affordable Homes Program. In establishing Thanksgiving Homes the CCHA recognizes the housing crisis in our country and here in our community. To help bridge the gap, the CCHA developed the Thanksgiving Homes Affordable Homes Program. This innovative program is designed to house families with mid to low income. Thanksgiving Homes is placing new homes within several established neighborhoods in our community. We hope that the placement will help revitalize old neighborhoods and in turn minimize the housing shortage.
