Access to safe, stable, and affordable housing is a cornerstone of thriving communities. The Vermont Housing Division is dedicated to expanding and preserving housing options across the state, ensuring that all Vermonters have access to homes they can afford.
Through innovative programs like the Vermont Housing Improvement Program (VHIP), we are adding much-needed units to the housing stock, while helping formerly homeless households secure stable housing. Additionally, our Manufactured Improvement and Repair Program (MHIR) supports the preservation of affordable homes in mobile home parks, ensuring that this vital source of housing remains a key component of Vermont’s affordable housing landscape.
We also work closely with state housing agencies and local partners to implement Vermont’s housing policy, administer the Mobile Home Parks Program, and support the development of the state’s HUD Consolidated Plan.
