Housing Authority of Yamhill Co.

About Us

Welcome to the Housing Authority of Yamhill County (HAYC), the Yamhill County Affordable Housing Corporation (YCAHC) and the Yamhill Housing Resource Center.

The Housing Authority of Yamhill County was established January 10, 1951 by resolution of the Yamhill County Board of Commissioners. The Housing Authority operates as an independent local public agency under federal and state law. The Housing Authority is governed by a five-member Board of Commissioners, which is appointed by the Yamhill County Commissioners. The Board is responsible for establishing policies and generally overseeing our operations.

The mission of the Housing Authority is to provide the opportunity for decent, safe, and affordable housing to individuals and families in our community and opportunities to position themselves for success.


Between the Housing Authority of Yamhill County, the Yamhill County Affordable Housing Corporation and the Yamhill Housing Resource Center, we are able to provide assistance to almost 2,000 local families monthly and put over $7 million dollars back into the local economy annually.

We invite you to look at the wide variety of programs that we offer through our organizations on our website. With programs for those looking to rent, those seeking homeownership opportunities, and those in their own homes that might be interested in a rehabilitation loan to improve the property, we offer a program for just about everyone.
