Community HousingWorks celebrated the progress being made on Navajo Family Apartments, a new 45-unit affordable housing community in the City of San Diego’s San Carlos neighborhood. This neighborhood is designated as a “Highest Resource Area” by the California Fair Housing Task Force because of its proximity to resources such as schools, transit, retail, and libraries.
Navajo Family Apartments will create new affordable homes designed to support families and individuals making 30%-70% of the area median income and will have 8 units set aside for residents with an intellectual or developmental disability. These homes are being created through strong partnerships, shared vision, and years of dedication from public agencies, financial partners, community stakeholders, and development professionals committed to creating lasting impact.
We were honored to celebrate alongside Mayor Todd Gloria; Councilmember Raul Campillo; Supervisor Joel Anderson; Dr. Elizabeth Hernandez of the County of San Diego Health & Human Services Agency; Colin Miller of the San Diego Housing Commission; the National Equity Fund team; Gabriel Brown of Columbia Bank; Saralynn Keenan of San Diego Regional Center; and Community HousingWorks leaders Sean Spear and Kevin Leichner, and board member Elizabeth Ramirez.
Developments like Navajo Family Apartments demonstrate what can be achieved when communities come together around a common goal: creating more opportunities for residents to live, grow, and thrive.
Together, we’re building more than housing—we’re building stronger communities.
Thank you to the partners and funders who helped make Navajo Family Apartments possible: California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (CTCAC), County of San Diego, San Diego Regional Center, National Equity Fund (NEF), San Diego Housing Commission (SDHC), California Department of Developmental Services (DDS), Columbia Bank, the City of San Diego, and Capital One.
We also thank our development team—Highland General Contractor Design Builder, Bowman, and Rodriguez Associates Architects and Planners, Inc.—for their expertise and commitment in bringing this vision to life.
