Provides and preserves stable and affordable homes for adults with low incomes and their children, many of whom are homeless and have special needs due to mental health issues, HIV/AIDS diagnosis, and substance abuse problems. To date, 13 rental developments have been built or rehabilitated providing a total of 229 apartments. These apartments currently provide stable and affordable homes for nearly 500 low-income adults and children.

BHNC had developed eight properties for individuals and families with special needs in various neighborhoods citywide. Vacancies for our special needs properties are filled either by referrals from the service providers with whom we collaborate or by referrals from the San Francisco Housing Authority depending on the specific development. The service providers with whom we work are Black Coalition on AIDS, Asian American Recovery Services, Positive MATCH-Rita Da Cascia Program, Lutheran Social Services, and Progress Foundation. Anyone interested in our special needs properties should contact the service providers listed above and the San Francisco Housing Authority.

BHNC's remaining developments that provide housing for individuals, families, and seniors are managed by Caritas Management Corporation. Please contact their office at 415-647-7191 for apartment availability.
