Abode Communities was founded in 1968 during the Civil Rights movement as an all-volunteer organization working to address urban inequity through civic engagement, community design, and urban planning. In the mid-1980s, as Los Angeles communities faced severe economic recession, rising housing costs, and a marked increase in homelessness, the organization shifted its focus to the production and preservation of affordable housing.

By year 2000, with a heightened awareness that resident families and seniors needed additional onsite support to retain their housing, Abode Communities assumed the management of its housing portfolio and piloted its signature resident services program, Beyond Homes.

Nearly six decades later, Abode Communities’ interdisciplinary approach to community development continues throughout California, holistically addressing systemic inequities by prioritizing lived experiences, improving long-term economic mobility, and creating long-term housing stability across generations.

Today, Abode Communities owns and operates nearly 50 affordable residential communities serving some 7,300 people throughout California, more than half of which are enriched with complimentary onsite resident services.
