In 2002, we opened Strawberry Village Cottages in south Anchorage. It was our first family rental housing development and began our journey of trailblazing innovative funding methods to address our affordable housing demand. Leveraging mixed sources of funding allowed CIHA to take a bold step, applying Fair Housing laws, to provide housing opportunities to all eligible low and moderate income people in our service area, regardless of race. This was a milestone for CIHA.
