Our homes were built with money borrowed from the State of New York and the Federal Government through the New York State Division of Housing and Community Renewal (DHCR) and United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). They provide decent, safe, sanitary and affordable homes for eligible families. The money loaned by these agencies must be repaid so housing programs must be operated in a business-like manner. DHCR and HUD have both singled out the KHA for recognition as one of the top performing public housing agencies in the State and Nation. That sort of support would not be possible without the dedication of our staff and cooperation of all residents. Pride in our communities is a theme that runs through all we think and all we do. It is Community Pride that sets us apart from the rest. With a respect for our past and an eye on the future, we believe we have developed a clear vision of how to grow and succeed in an environment of shrinking government assistance. We do more than just put a roof overhead. Today, we include on our resume: youth education and development, job training, crime control, service to the community and the development of new affordable housing. We are proud to say that our management and maintenance techniques are highly regarded and sought by the private sector as well as the assisted housing industry.
