Housing for All

Community Housing

We believe everyone deserves a home.

Which is why our Community Housing division manages 25 affordable housing communities that ensure seniors—regardless of their financial situation—can have a safe and comfortable place to call home. Scattered across Oregon, California, and Texas, these communities are further supported by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, which has given PRS superior management review ratings. In addition, we have a community that welcomes families in Medford, Oregon. Helping seniors and families create a stable and purpose-driven life isn’t just what we say we do, it’s what we actually do.

Rent and Utilities Support

Rents are subsidized by HUD for people who meet the federal requirements. Rent is based on a resident’s adjusted gross income, which is calculated by subtracting approved medical expenses from income. The resident pays 30% of their adjusted income for rent.

Water, garbage, and sewage expenses are covered by the community. Because residents are responsible for their own electricity, HUD provides a utility allowance that is deducted from the rent.

Fair Housing

We comply with federal, state, and local Fair Housing regulations, homing persons without regard to race, color, national origin, religion, gender, familial status, or disability. We do not discriminate on the basis of disability status in the admission or access to, or treatment or employment in, federal, state, or local assisted programs and activities.

Interpretive Services

Applicants and residents with limited English-language proficiency may schedule interpretive services upon request.
