Affordable Housing

ABOUT

Welcome to CC Housing! We are part of Catholic Charities’ mission to expand affordable housing options for low-income families and individuals across New Mexico. Since 2016, we have focused on identifying new construction opportunities to meet our community’s growing housing needs.

In partnership with housing developers, government agencies, and private investors, we collaborate to develop tax credit-funded affordable housing communities. Our projects may be owned or co-owned with other entities and are managed by third-party property management partners.

Today, we have 7 developments totaling 451 units, with 2 additional communities under construction that will add 115 more units. We are proud to offer affordable housing options including Hibernian House (Albuquerque), Generations at West Mesa (Albuquerque), Sun-Ray Lobo Canyon (Grants), Encantada (Los Lunas), Felician Villa I and II (Rio Rancho), and Three Sisters (Las Cruces).

All CC Housing properties have an on-site Social Service Coordinator to provide enrichment services based on resident needs, including but not limited to job training, computer literacy, gardening, CPR training, nutrition classes, and more.

To apply for affordable housing, please contact each project's respective property management companies using the contact information listed below.
