Notes:

Rental Opportunities
Urban Homeworks strives to provide housing that is both stable and dignified. Stability is important in helping families manage their daily lives. We create this stability by offering housing that is safe and that people can be proud of. Partnerships with local social service organizations provide additional support by serving as advocates for the families and providing necessary social services. Resources from these social service partners combined with a supportive landlord and quality, dignified housing from Urban Homeworks weave a web of support under the families we serve. Available housing includes 1-, 2- and 3-bedroom units. To apply, download the application and fax to 612-722-2214. For more information about renting, contact Dan Hunt, Director of Housing, at 612-272-4177

Construction Training
Through dynamic partnerships with local training organizations, Urban Homeworks equips women, men and youth with the skills needed for gainful employment in the construction industry. Using our sites as a classroom, skilled trainers take participants through a training program that teaches them the basics of construction such as tool usage, construction techniques, theory and basic job skills. The work has varied from gutting out distressed properties, to building ICF foundations and framing, using advanced construction techniques. Starting salaries in the construction and carpentry trades are much higher than typical entry-level jobs. Training addresses the income side of the affordable housing equation
