Background Statement
Foothills Regional Housing was founded in 1975. Since then, the housing authority has grown to serve over 3,000 households per year through affordable rentals and Housing Choice Vouchers.
FRH began to realize that a home was often not enough to truly stabilize households and allow them to thrive. In 2019, FRH launched service coordination to better connect residents to organizations that can provide them with additional support in whatever areas they need.
After COVID, this service became increasingly needed, however, as a housing authority, FRH was limited in growing services due to an inability to fundraise. That is where FRH Connects comes in.
Founded in 2025, FRH Connects, a 501(c)3, unlocks grants and donations that have expanded service coordination and community building, and launched eviction prevention and housing navigation programs.
Contributions to FRH Connects go directly towards supporting the growth and potential of FRH families.
