STRATEGIC PLAN

Our vision 2030 Strategic Plan charts a clear path to expanding affordable housing opportunities, supporting a resilient Island community for generations to come.

WHERE WE'VE COME FROM
Over the past two decades, Island Housing Trust has grown from a small community driven initiative into a leading nonprofit developer and long-term steward of permanently affordable homes. Today, with 174 completed homes and 140 more in the development pipeline, our mission has expanded in both scale and scope.
WHERE WE'RE GOING
Our 2030 goals build on our solid foundation. We’ll strengthen our core housing development work while deepening our commitment to stewardship, environmental sustainability, community engagement, advocacy, and long-term financial resilience.
