MHP has earned a new certification that recognizes and validates the positive impact of our resident-centered programs, including Community Life enrichment programming. MHP is now a Certified Organization for Resident Engagement & Services (CORES) entity.

CORES recognizes organizations that demonstrate a commitment, capacity, and competency in providing resident services coordination in affordable rental homes. These certified organizations are invested in using housing as a platform for opportunity and have a record of providing robust resident services coordination in affordable housing communities. The program is administered by Stewards of Affordable Housing for the Future. Learn more about the certification here.

For more than 30 years, MHP has been committed to housing people, empowering families, and strengthening neighborhoods. We provide over 2,275 quality, affordable homes in the region. Our programs offer more than just a place to live — they give families an opportunity for stability and a chance to aspire and achieve.

MHP has seen great growth over the past three decades. In the years ahead, we are committed to further expanding access to quality, affordable housing and providing impactful programs for our residents. Will you help us get there? Join us and our many supporters and make a gift today. Together, we can make a difference.

Ms. Corles is a respected, beloved teacher in MHP’s afterschool programs for young students. To connect with them, she draws upon her own challenging life experiences. She sees MHP’s afterschool enrichment programs as an opportunity to take the hands of her students and help them navigate their own challenges.

The Purple Line Corridor Coalition (PLCC), which includes public, non-profit, and private organizations, is working to ensure the Purple Line transit project serving Montgomery and Prince George’s counties will help create a place of opportunity for all who live, work and invest in the corridor. MHP is an active participant.

PLCC has developed a Housing Action Plan, with 12 draft recommendations based on these strategies to preserve and grow opportunities for housing for all within the Purple Line corridor:

• Make sure that there is a diverse mix of homes across the full range of price points.
• Address major challenges that would hinder the ability of residents to continue to afford to live along the corridor whether renting or owning.
• Make it possible for a wider range of families to own their homes across the corridor.

PLCC is seeking comments on the recommendations from interested resident and community stakeholders. Read the recommendations here. Provide your comments and learn more about the coalition here.
