Programs & Services
The Nehemiah Program’s expertise in affordable housing development is becoming widely recognized as one of the most innovative, cost effective housing providers in the region. Our commitment to Affordable Housing is creating housing opportunities that was once never available or obtainable for a broad range of residents from diverse social and economic backgrounds. We specifically target low- and moderate-income eligible families who are challenged to obtain housing through traditional means.
We focus on developing housing opportunities through 3 major platforms:
PURCHASES
The Nehemiah Program offers properties for sale in Missouri and Illinois. Our portfolio of properties consists of, multi-family units, and single-family homes. Since the clients we serve often have barriers to home ownership, we have created strategic partnerships with local financial institutions that have financing products and services specifically designed to help move our clients on a continuum toward home ownership.

LEASE PURCHASES
The Nehemiah Program also has developed a lease purchase program whereas clients can receive wraparound supportive services as they prepare for home ownership. Short term leases enable these clients to occupy quality, safe, and affordable housing while they build their home ownership skills and assets and a portion of their lease is being contributed to the purchase of their home.

SINGLE FAMILY RENTALS &
GROUP TRANSITIONAL LIVING
THE NEHEMIAH PROGRAM provides group transitional housing and scattered site single- and multi-family transitional rental housing to individuals and families not yet prepared for home ownership with wraparound supportive services that help move these individuals on to home ownership, as well.
