Making Housing a priority
Cooper Housing Institute (CHI) is a nonprofit foundation that strives to make housing a priority in the United States by supporting research and programs that address housing affordability and homelessness.
We believe everyone in the United States should have access to affordable housing. Decent living standards increase quality of life, health, and happiness of not only individuals and families, but their larger community as well.
Driven by the desire to do more, WNC’s Wilfred Cooper Sr. and Wilfred Cooper Jr. co-founded the Cooper Housing Institute, a foundation that strives to make housing a priority in the United States by supporting research and programs directly addressing housing affordability and homelessness.
