About Working to Expand Housing Access and Viability, Inc.

Who We Are

Working to Expand Housing Access and Viability, Inc. is a U.S. 501(c)(3) public charity (EIN 22216308) focused on aligning relief with durable pathways to housing and income.

We work with people who are unhoused or at risk of homelessness, as well as with local governments, nonprofit partners, and employers. Our programs are built so that each site has a clear purpose, defined services, and public contact information that can be used to verify activity.

Staff combine lived experience, outreach practice, and systems navigation. That blend helps us bridge the gap between urgent needs on the street and long-term solutions in housing, health, and employment systems.

How We Work

• Human-centered interactions grounded in safety, respect, and choice.
• Evidence-informed design with simple, transparent reporting back to partners.
• Partnerships documented through written MOUs with clear scopes and responsibilities.

Approach

Our approach starts with listening to people who are most affected by homelessness and housing instability. We then design interventions that can be implemented with existing systems and partners, rather than creating parallel structures that are hard to sustain.

Each initiative is documented in plain language: what we do, who is eligible, where it happens, and how to reach staff. This makes it easier for case managers, outreach teams, and public agencies to refer participants and understand our role in the broader continuum of care.
