Delivering stability for generations

A message from Jeff Mortensen, President & CEO

Housing stability is essential

Housing stability is an award-winning cornerstone of 360 Communities’ mission to deliver safety and stability that improves lives. When families have access to secure and affordable housing, they can build the foundation necessary for long-term success. Stable housing not only provides a roof over their heads, but it also reduces stress, promotes better mental health, and creates a safe environment where families can grow and thrive.

Impact on student success

Housing stability directly impacts academic achievement for students. When students know they will come home to the same place every day, they can focus more on learning and less on where they will sleep or eat. Research shows that students who experience housing instability are more likely to struggle in school, face higher absenteeism rates, and have lower graduation rates. By ensuring families have stable housing, 360 Communities is helping to break the cycle of poverty and foster a stronger future for young people. The benefits of housing stability extend beyond individual families and students — it strengthens the entire community.

Community

When residents have consistent, affordable housing, they can better participate in and contribute to their neighborhoods. Stable housing promotes economic stability, reduces crime rates, and fosters a sense of community belonging. At 360 Communities, we recognize that housing is essential to creating a healthy, vibrant community, and we are committed to supporting families on their journey toward long-term stability.
