	MCHI’s Mission
	To develop, maintain and promote quality housing that is affordable for residents of Monterey County and to strengthen families by supporting stable and economically diverse neighborhoods.

On behalf of MCHI's Board of Directors please allow me to welcome you to the web site of the Monterey County Housing Inc., also known simply as MCHI (mee-chee). The goal of this website is to provide you with information about MCHI and its efforts to realize its mission as stated above...AND its awareness that it takes more than shelter from the elements to enhance lives, it takes a coordinated effort of all non-profits within the County.

In that connection I direct your attention to the news scroller below and the Event Calendar accessible via the icon to the right...both of which attempt to addresses not only MCHI oriented events that may be of interest to you, but ALL organizations that focus on the quality of life within Monterey County.

Prior visitors to MCHI will notice broad changes in this website...changes that shall securely include ALL Monterey County stakeholders' input in the realization of the Community's potential, from affordable housing to needed services.

It is a work in progress.

“There's still people who don't know that Article 34 was a direct result of white backlash to civil rights victories and the attempt of President Truman to desegregate housing,”
