Affordable Community Housing Trust is a California non-profit organization recognized by the Internal Revenue service. As a 501c(3) entity, ACHT operates as a tax-exempt organization dedicated to serving the housing needs of lower income individuals, families, the elderly and those with special needs. ACHT’s founders have been involved in housing since the 1960’s when an ecumenical effort for housing and care of the elderly was carried out successfully by Trinity Cathedral Church (Episcopal) in Sacramento and Retirement Housing Foundation (Long Beach) in California. Since that time, ACHT has developed and owned over 1,100 multi-family and senior housing apartments with an aggregate asset value of more than $70 million. However, while ACHT seeks opportunities for expansion and new relationships to further our mission, every corporate decision is made with the care deserving of the service in which ACHT has at the center of its purpose and reason for existence.

 

 

Affordable Community Housing Trust provides housing opportunities and services to seniors, low-income individuals and families, according to their needs, in environments
that encourage positive growth in all
areas of our residents’ lives.

 

The Organization

Operating Philosophy: Affordable Community Housing Trust strives to operate a stable, national coalition of multi-family housing properties with integrity as we serve others.  While we operate in a business-like manner, we operate as well to bring the love and compassion of Christ through assisting those in need - be it physical, mental or spiritual.  ACHT and the ACHT subsidiaries believe in developing and maintaining strong community ties wherever ACHT facilities are located in order to serve not only our residents but also the surrounding community – encouraging those less fortunate with God’s love.

34"Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.' 37"Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?' 40"The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.' --Matthew 25:34-40 (NIV)
