Our Mission

"We bring people together by sharing updates, hosting events, and supporting causes."

The Paterson Habitat Homeowners' Association is a nonprofit organization that has been in operation since 1984. It was established during the building of affordable homes in the city of Paterson, New Jersey by the Paterson Habitat for Humanity, now known as Passaic County Habitat for Humanity.

\

The purpose of the Paterson Habitat Homeowners' Association was to allow the homeowners to discuss concerns about their homes, as well as issues pertaining to quality of life. As homes were being built in the neighborhoods of Paterson, the association was not only for the Paterson Habitat Homeowners', but it was open to others to join the organization from the community. 501 3c was established.

The Paterson Habitat Homeowners' Association mission is to serve and make every effort to better our communities, and here to name a few of the organization's accomplishments:

• Reopening of the First Ward Libraries, N. Main St.& Christopher Hope Center, Temple St.

• Succeeding with Reading Book Club

• Family Day at the Library/Story Telling

• Teen Mom/Young Adult Program

• Receive Grants to support community projects
