The Housing Assistance Council is a nonprofit organization based in Washington, DC, founded in 1971. It works to improve housing conditions for rural low-income households, prioritizing the poorest in the most rural places. The council supports local organizations in developing affordable homes and promotes homeownership for working rural families through a self-help construction approach, where residents contribute labor to build their homes. It provides services to public, nonprofit, and private partners across rural America. HAC emphasizes local solutions, resident empowerment, reduced dependence, and capacity-building, especially in high-need regions such as Indian country, the Mississippi Delta, farmworker communities, the Southwest border colonias, and Appalachia. A notable development in 2026 is a partnership with UnidosUS to study heirs' property in Latino communities and identify strategies to protect long-term housing stability and wealth creation.
