Advancing housing affordability, accessibility, and stability for those with the greatest need
Home
AHRI is advancing affordable and accessible rental housing in Corpus Christi and the Coastal Bend.
Affordability
Cost of owning or renting a home should not exceed 30% of household income.
Accessibility
Recent data identifies less than 1% of available rental housing as accessible.
Stability
Housing security provides a stable environment for families in poverty.
Established as a 501(c)3 non-profit corporation in Corpus Christi, Texas in 2005, Accessible Housing Resources, Inc. provides affordable, accessible, decent housing for low income households. AHRI is also focused on serving individuals and households with a disability, and offers rental assistance for low-income individuals and families in Corpus Christi and the Coastal Bend.
Since 2018, AHRI has supported households impacted by disaster, those with low-incomes and disabilities, and assisted individuals to transition out of homelessness. Thanks to HEART grant funding, AHRI provides case management for Hurricane Harvey displaced households, has built its organizational capacity and received technical assistance from Enterprise Communities, the grant administrator.

AHRI’s Mission Statement
COVID-19 Housing Assistance
Individuals and families who have suffered financial losses since March due to the COVID-19 pandemic and who need assistance meeting their housing costs (rent and utilities) are invited to visit the Alerts! page for more information.
“It is hard to argue that housing is not a fundamental human need. Decent, affordable housing should be a basic right for everybody in this country. The reason is simple: without stable shelter, everything else falls apart.”
Matthew Desmond, Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City
