Dear Members, Partners, and Stakeholders,

At the California Council for Affordable Housing (CCAH), our core mission is to support and advance the development of affordable rental housing throughout the state of California. Our members are the community builders who ensure that every Californian has access to safe, affordable, and sustainable housing. As we continue our work, we remain deeply committed to supporting production-focused affordable housing developers and affiliated stakeholders—like you—who are at the forefront of meeting California’s critical housing needs.

Our advocacy efforts are centered on creating an environment where affordable housing development can thrive. From pushing for policy reforms and legislative changes to ensuring that developers have the resources they need to navigate complex regulations, CCAH is your trusted partner in making affordable rental housing production a reality. We believe that collaboration and effective advocacy are key to driving the change needed to tackle the state’s housing crisis, and we exist to help you succeed in these efforts.

We understand the challenges you face in building affordable housing, and our goal is to provide you with the tools, insights, advocacy, education and connections to ensure your voice is heard in Sacramento and across the state. By working together, we can shape policies that promote housing production, streamline processes, and remove barriers to development, while also ensuring long-term affordability for communities in need.

As part of our ongoing commitment to serve our members, we are excited to announce the re-launch of our website. This updated platform is designed to better support our stakeholders with easy access to critical resources, policy updates, upcoming events, and advocacy tools—everything you need to stay informed and engaged in the ongoing effort to increase housing production across California. We encourage you to explore the new site and take advantage of the resources available to help further your work.

Today I invite you to join us and be part of the solution. Together, and with other allied organizations, we can continue to build the housing solutions that all Californians deserve.

Thank you for your partnership and support.

Warm regards,

Jenna Abbott
Executive Director
California Council for Affordable Housing
