Nonprofit Overview

Mission: Bhnc focuses on the needs of people with low and moderate incomes. We work to accomplish our mission by: (1) developing affordable housing throughout san francisco; (2) providing linguistically and culturally responsive services to our community's most vulnerable adults, seniors, youth and their familiies; (3) developing leaders, organizing and empowering our tenants, clients, members and allies to advocate for their needs and for the needs of the community.
Programs: Housing programs: programs designed to construct, rehabilitate, and operate housing for individuals and families with low-income and special-needs. Bhnc also provides onsite services to include community development, relocation services, community engagement, onsite public safety meetings, and resident leadership training.
senior services: programs designed to improve the quality of life of elders through services including daily lunch service, home food delivery, food pantry,educational and recreational programming, health and wellness programs, home safety, and social services for elders coping with difficult problems. Our goal is to provide empowerment and leadership development opportunities for seniors in our community.
youth programs: to meet and overcome the challenges faced by teens and young adults, programs were developed that create a network of comprehensive, supportive services to provide empowerment and leadership development opportunities for our youth. Bhnc has developed effective gang prevention, case management, leadership development, civic engagement, and advocacy training, recreation and employment services and food justice education. Youth and their families receive positive alternatives that do make a difference in a young person's life. Bhnc also provides year-round youth employment training through the mayor's youth employment and education program (myeep).
