Mission Housing develops, maintains and manages 100 percent affordable housing. This housing inventory is managed via a variety of wait lists and coordinated entry programs.
If you are in need of housing in San Francisco, your first step should be to enlist the aid of a housing counselor. You will learn how to add your name to the wait lists for the housing that is available, and how to connect with other resources.
Here is a link to the list of counselors as found on the SF Mayor’s website: https://housing.sfgov.org/housing-counselors
