Rebuilding the Gulf Coast

The Gulf Coast Housing Partnership is a New Orleans-based nonprofit development company that seeks to build 10,000 affordable homes in hurricane-impacted communities in Louisiana and Mississippi. Launched in 2006, the company has raised $20 million for project financing and has more than 1,000 homes in development—including rental, ownership and supportive housing for families and individuals.

GCHP was created by the Housing Partnership Network in close collaboration with local civic leadership, Network members from the Gulf region and around the country, and national financial institutions and foundations. GCHP is an independent nonprofit with a strong board of directors, with the Network currently providing staffing and operating support under a management contract.
