CARE has been at the forefront of utilizing Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) financing to create high-quality, sustainable housing communities. The LIHTC program, established in 1986, is one of the most effective tools for increasing the supply of affordable housing in the United States. CARE works closely with government agencies, private investors, and social service providers to maximize the impact of these tax credits, ensuring that each project delivers long-term benefits for both residents and the broader community.

To date, CARE has successfully developed over 2,000 residential units across more than 50 projects throughout Southern California. These projects range from single-family homes to large multifamily developments, all designed to meet the specific needs of the communities they serve. CARE’s ability to navigate the complexities of LIHTC funding — from securing allocations to managing compliance and investor relations — has positioned it as a trusted partner in affordable housing development.

By reinvesting revenue and partnering with local governments and nonprofit organizations, CARE ensures that these housing communities remain affordable and well-maintained for decades. The success of CARE’s tax credit-financed projects reflects not only the organization’s financial expertise but also its commitment to providing stable, supportive housing that fosters economic mobility and community strength.
