Self-Help Enterprises develops quality, affordable rental apartments to serve the housing needs of low-income Valley residents and underserved farmworker communities. Residents in these underserved communities face over-crowding and overpaying with most farmworkers struggling to obtain decent, affordable housing for their families.
Affordable rental apartments are important to the sustainability of communities and developing an overall vibrant community.
All of our 35 rental communities are professionally managed and are located near schools, bus lines and other community services.
The rental housing communities are developed with ample space inside and outside along with plenty of green space and play areas for children. They also feature multi-use community centers complete with computer labs and kitchen facilities.
Our rental communities also feature:
- Energy efficient appliances
- 2, 3 and 4 bedrooms
- Gas stove/oven
- Dishwasher
- Refrigerator
- Central air conditioning and heat
Resident Services
Self-Help Enterprises is committed to creating a safe learning environment for residents and their children. We work with many community partners to provide free resident services such as job training, health and medical services, financial training and homebuyer education. The combination of housing and resident services is a way Self-Help Enterprises helps people help themselves.
