HALC provides a variety of affordable housing options in Lincoln County.   We believe that affordable housing is fundamental to the success of individuals and families in becoming self-sufficient.  Through our rental housing services, programs and our Oceanspray Family Center, the Housing Authority has a significant positive impact on the local economy and on the hundreds of participants receiving housing rental assistance.

HALC also owns and manages several affordable housing developments in Lincoln County that serve low-income persons with affordable housing.  Emergency housing assistance is not available through HALC.  Our housing inventory also has eleven barrier free accessible units, including two for the visually impaired.   HALC’s owned Avery House, a five-bedroom house is leased to a service provider who operates the house for severely physically challenged individuals.

Funding for HALC’s programs and operations is obtained from a variety of resources such as HUD, private investors and foundations, the State of Oregon and from rental fees.
