Resident Services

Affordable Homes & Communities (AHC) has provided award-winning Resident Services for over 30 years. From the program’s start as an afterschool initiative for children to today, it has expanded to provide a wide range of services for children, families, adults, and seniors, fostering long-term, trusting relationships within the communities we serve and providing a platform for upward mobility.
