Our History

Priorities Over Time

The San Joaquin Valley Housing Collaborative (SJVHC) has made significant progress in the past two years. We now have a permanent executive director, completed a strategic plan, and have provided information and resources to affordable housing developers throughout the San Joaquin Valley. With this growing capacity, SJVHC will be able to launch a number of major accomplishments which includes membership drive, year-long training and networking opportunities, and increased collaboration among diverse housing stakeholders. 

Priorities Today

The primary focus of our work today is on increasing the production of affordable housing in the eight-county region of the San Joaquin Valley. Our goal is to both enhance the affordable housing development ecosystem and better connect affordable housing to community services, health, and economic development. SJVHC has identified a few key priority areas that will allow SJVHC to remain committed to building a strong ecosystem of support for affordable housing and community development in our region.

Priority Areas

Serve as a regional voice for effective affordable housing policies that will support a broad network of partners who aim to promote and increase the development of affordable and workforce housing in the Valley

Grow More Developer Capacity in the Valley

Create a training program, in partnership with existing training providers, to develop and deliver a specific training for existing affordable housing developers (to increase their capacity) and would-be affordable housing developers (to help them gain entry to the market) in the Valley.

Getting the Valley's Fair Share

Be a local trusted resource for state lawmakers thinking about how to fund affordable housing in the Valley.  Aiming to ‘grow the pie’ of affordable housing funding statewide, as well as to increase the proportion of funding flowing to the Valley.

Support Local Governments Building Their Capacity:

Promote local governments’ increasing their planning resources through training, helping them identify funding for planning and securing the support of the COGs in getting that funding (e.g. REAP 2.0), streamlining processes (such as plan check reviews) Read More

Shift the Narrative On Housing Affordability and Homelessness

Create a storytelling series to tell the stories of different people in the Valley that are experiencing homelessness or housing stress, including youth.

Integrate Homeless Services with Affordable Housing

Convene housing developers, case managers at continuum of care, and service providers to develop relationships and opportunities for better collaboration.

Launching a Membership Development Program

SJVHC became a membership based organization in 2024. We have two membership categories: organizational and individual. The goal of the membership program is to increase ownership, impact, and resources for the organization.
