Our Impact

Catholic Homes New York is an initiative led by Catholic Charities and the Archdiocese of New York that develops affordable housing for families and seniors throughout the Archdiocese of New York. In partnership with the Association of New York Catholic Homes (ANYCH) and the New York Institute for Human Development (IHD), Catholic Charities of New York creates new affordable homes and preserves existing units, continuing decades of work building strong, sustainable communities through affordable housing. Since the 1970s, during a national commitment to the development of low income housing, the Church has developed over 2,000 units of low-income housing for families and seniors throughout the Archdiocese. Today, in response to the tremendous need for affordable housing, Catholic Homes is working to ensure the preservation and development of affordable housing with a pipeline of new projects on church and affiliate owned sites.
