We Believe:
Access to attainable homes for everyone is a community responsibility and a basic human right. We work every day to create as many housing options as possible for our community.
Created in 1978, the Missoula Housing Authority is one of the largest public housing authorities in Montana. We are proud to be recognized as a progressive, forward-thinking agency that creatively implements our many services and uses innovative development financing.
Over 2,300 families with a broad range of incomes have safe, stable homes through MHA programs.

Vision
The Missoula Housing Authority envisions a thriving community in which all people enjoy an enriched quality of life rooted in stable, affordable housing.
Mission
Through creative partnerships and innovative development, the Missoula Housing Authority provides quality housing solutions for low and middle-income households in Missoula and the surrounding area.
Values
These are the values that infuse our work:
Responsibility
MHA views access to affordable housing as a community-wide responsibility and a basic human right.
Partnerships
The housing challenge is one that must be met by a wide array of entities. Recognizing this, MHA will seek ways to collaborate creatively with multiple non-profit and for-profit organizations, each playing distinct and vital roles, to ensure that Missoula’s “housing solution” accesses every opportunity and leverages widely diverse tools and methods.
Education
Educating the broader community in regard to the housing needs and a host of innovative solutions is as important as building and developing the housing itself. MHA will assume an active and leading role as a housing advocate.
Flexibility
Housing needs and their appropriate solutions continuously change. MHA is committed to a creative, forward-thinking and flexible evolution that best serves Missoula’s ever-changing housing needs.
Self Sufficiency
We are committed to providing creative programs and tools for participants to assist them in reaching their goals of stable housing, including homeownership, and economic self sufficiency.
