As our community of Comal County and the greater New Braunfels area continues to grow and market housing costs skyrocket, more individuals and families struggle to make ends meet and have a safe place to sleep at night. When factors such as health conditions, a limited income, unreliable transportation, past trauma, or mental illness are also present, anyone may reach a tipping point that leads to unstable housing situations, or even homelessness.
This is why we do what we do. We are saving lives and making our community stronger.
NB Housing Partners is made up of neighbors who believe there is no price on human dignity and the
security of having a place to call home. Everything we do is driven by that certainty. We are funded by
governmental grants and charitable donations from citizens, businesses, and other civic organizations.
All people have value and are worthy of respect.
We treat others the way we want to be treated.
We join in the journey of others with relentless care and guidance.
We create an environment where individuals are supported and encouraged to overcome life’s stressors with resilience, purpose, and well-being.
We foster collaborative partnerships and community involvement to address housing insecurity.
We serve individual needs to prioritize the overall health of our community.
We are clear and accountable in our commitment to effectively address our community’s housing challenges.
