Employer Assisted Housing (EAH) not only provides quality workforce, but it provides a quality of life for that workforce.

More and more business leaders understand that meeting the demand for workforce housing requires their involvement.  Everyone gains when employees live closer to where they work. They can devote more time to their work, family and community. Employers reduce turnover costs and increase their competitiveness in recruiting new employees. Communities benefit from increased local investment, a more vibrant local economy, less stress on transportation and the environment.

Below is a variety of information on the implementation and benefits of Employer Assisted Housing.
