Peoples’ Self-Help Housing (PSHH) is a chartered member of NeighborWorks America, a national network of affordable housing and community development organizations. Every June, during NeighborWorks Week, PSHH hosts a service day at one of our properties to highlight PSHH programs, raise community awareness, and create positive change.
In 2017, our NW Week project will be a day of community building, gardening, and property beautification at South Bay Apartments in Los Osos .
On Friday, June 9 you can help us make a difference during two shifts: 9am-12pm and/or 1pm-4pm . Please sign up online and select one or both of these slots.
Volunteers will receive lunch and a volunteer t-shirt, and meet some of the residents and our dedicated staff! Please plan to dress appropriately for landscape work and weather; bring a hat, gloves, and sunscreen! We hope to see you on June 9!

Mission Statement
The mission of People's Self-Help Housing is to build affordable homes and provide services to strengthen communities and change lives, with a focus on low-income households, families, farmworkers, seniors, and veterans on California's Central Coast.
Description
Founded in 1970, PSHH is the longest-serving nonprofit affordable housing organization on the Central Coast. With a mission of building homes and providing services to strengthen communities and change lives, PSHH serves low-income households, families, farmworkers, seniors, and veterans. It also provides welcoming environments for those living with disabilities, youth transitioning out of foster care, and the formerly homeless. Along with building and managing beautiful and accessible neighborhoods, we offer a wide range of services to promote health, well-being, and career success. Homeownership opportunities through a self-help, "sweat-equity" program have created over 1,200 homes and with a presence in San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Ventura, and Monterey counties, PSHH manages over 2,000 rental units, and employs over 200 members of staff.
At PSHH we build so much more than housing; we build resilient neighborhoods, places residents are proud to call home.
