How We Impact the Community

FHNV is dedicated to promoting and developing fair and equal housing opportunities for all people. Our mission is to eliminate housing discrimination and to assist tenants and landlords alike through advocacy, counseling, education, training and mediation. FHNV focuses its services on low-income tenants and members of our community’s most vulnerable populations. We are the only agency of its kind in Napa.

The need for our services has increased, as housing security and eviction risks have risen. Over just the past year, our agency has assisted over 500 tenant households and more than 1,400 Napa residents with a variety of housing-related needs. Of these tenant households:

– 84% were at/ below the low-income threshold;
– 46% of households included a minor;
– 45% included a household member with a disability;
– 40% were senior households; and
– 63% of all households assisted were POC, including 49% Latinx.

Testimonial

I came to FHNV because I was being illegally evicted. I found advocates at FHNV that listened to me. I live life in the margin and am often times ignored or turned away.
