What We Do
We’re in this for good.
New Directions’ mission is to develop and maintain affordable housing and vital communities in partnership with neighborhoods and other stakeholders.
We seek to achieve that mission through our core services: the management of affordable rental properties, increasing the number of available properties particularly in Louisville’s West End, our home repair programs, and building community by being tireless advocates for neighborhood residents.
Property Management & Resident Services
New Directions’ flagship service is the management of affordable rental properties available to individuals, families, seniors, and those with disabilities.
Real-Estate Development
Our Real Estate Development program’s goal is to increase and preserve affordable housing, primarily in Louisville’s West End neighborhoods.
Home Repair
Our home repair programs make life-changing home improvements for the elderly and disabled.
Community Building and Engagement
Building community requires the engagement of people. At New Directions, we know that our role in successful neighborhood revitalization is that of a friend and facilitator.
Goals and Commitments
Our favorite directions: onward and upward
Our work isn’t done when a family finally gets a decent place to call home. We don’t quit when an elderly or disabled person’s home is improved, allowing them to continue living there. Some of our neighbors will always be in need, and our goal will be to help them.
But we are committed to more than just getting people into affordable housing. We are dedicated to creating a path from homelessness and insufficient housing to something empowering, whether it’s renting an apartment independently or even owning a home.
