WCHT is a way for our community to build more housing together.
WCHT is a volunteer-run and member-led organization. Our members elect our Board of Directors each year and use Working Groups to get things done. By becoming a member, you're joining the network of local people working to fix the housing crisis in different ways. We are not waiting for anyone to do it for us! Your time and membership dues contribute directly to the next parcel we're buying, fixing up, and conserving as affordable housing.
If you want to do more to help with affordable housing, you're in the right place.
If you don't know much about the problem but want to help, you're in the right place.
If you want to put your skills to work to create a new system for homebuilding, you're in the right place.

What makes this model effective?
“Community land trusts (CLTs) are nonprofit organizations governed by a board of CLT residents, community residents and public representatives that provide lasting community assets and shared equity homeownership opportunities for families and communities. CLTs develop rural and urban agriculture projects, commercial spaces to serve local communities, affordable rental and cooperative housing projects, and conserve land or urban green spaces. However, the heart of their work is the creation of homes that remain permanently affordable, providing successful homeownership opportunities for generations of lower income families. There are over 225 community land trusts in the United States.”
