Affordable Housing
   The Housing Services Affiliate of the Bernal Heights Neighborhood Center has been developing affordable housing since 1982. To date, BHNC has 16 developments with a total of 373 units, including 4 commercial units. These developments provide stable and affordable homes for nearly 635 low-income adults and children. One development is limited equity homeownership while the other 15 are rentals. HSA has dedicated supportive services for residents in nearly half of its units, with 32 units specifically targeted to individuals and families with special needs and 162 units to individuals and families who were previously homeless. Our developments range in size from 2 units to 135 units and are located throughout San Francisco in Bernal Heights, Crocker Amazon, Sunnyside, the Mission, the Portola, SOMA, the Western Addition, and soon to be in the Outer Richmond. Currently, we are in construction on 20 units of Housing for Developmentally Disabled Adults in the Outer Richmond known as 29th Avenue Apartments. In November of 2009 we completed development of 135 units of Supportive Housing for Homeless Adults known as Bishop Swing Community House . Bishop Swing Community House is a LEED for Homes "Silver" Project, leading the way in integrated green design and sustainable building practices.
