Mission: In addition to advocating for affordable housing, we are committed to fostering the growth and long-term flourishing of grass roots constituencies which develop their power, nurture their own problem-solvers and leaders, and work together to change the conditions which prevent them from obtaining safe, decent, and affordable housing.
This is an excellent organization. It does highly professional/credible research on housing needs in the state that is used by both public agencies and private non-profits. This includes Who Can Afford to Live in Delaware, Realities of Poverty, Housing in a Hurry (a guide to affordable rental properties in the state) and others. DHC has set up a website called WHYNIMBY.org - Why Not in My Backyard - to combat racially and economically segregated communities caused by prejudice.
The organization supports increased funding for affordable housing and acts to promote fair housing in the state.
