“The full housing continuum — under one roof.”

HomeForce is a vertically integrated housing enterprise rooted in Detroit and built to scale. We train the workforce that serves housing. We certify the renters who stabilize it. We manage the properties that house them. And through Legacy, we create pathways to community ownership.

Workforce → Rental Readiness → Stable Housing → Ownership → Industry. Every step of the housing journey, connected by one organization with 28 years of community trust behind it. Rooted in Detroit. Built to Scale.

One ecosystem.
