Why RHA?

Hear the stories from our long-term employees

Joe's Story

Joe recently retired after nearly 31 years at RHA. He notes the many changes in the agency, including space. The main office on Andesite Ave. was once much smaller. Just two duplexes made up the office footprint. When the organization added on to the buildings, he said most people thought the new space would take 50 years to fill. But, as the need for affordable housing grows, so does the organization. Today RHA is busting at the seams.

Why did he stay at RHA for his entire career?

"The people” - Joe said.

"There are some really great people that have worked here over the years. And some really great tenants."
