Housing

Safe, adequate, physically accessible and affordable housing is a basic need of all Vermonters and it is a cornerstone of a viable economy and healthy communities.  The Department of Economic, Housing & Community Development (DEHCD) coordinates and oversees the implementation of the state's housing policy, faciliates collaboration among state housing agencies, serves as a resource to housing providers and promotes the production and preservation of housing that is affordable to all.  DEHCD assures our neighborhoods and communities are strong, and that housing choice exists with proximity to jobs, shops and schools through its programs, staff activities and leadership of the Vermont Housing Council. The Housing Division administers the Mobile Home Parks Program and the Charitable Housing Investment Tax Credit and coordinates development of the state's HUD Consolidated Plan for Housing and Community Development.
