The Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities (EOHLC) is charged with creating more homes in Massachusetts and lowering housing costs for residents.
Formerly known as the Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD), EOHLC works with municipalities, local housing authorities, non-profit organizations, and development partners to provide affordable housing options, financial assistance, and other support to Massachusetts communities.
OVERVIEW OF ROLE (NOT ALL INCLUSIVE)\:
The Secretariat’s mission includes the production or preservation of primarily affordable rental and ownership housing – especially for low- to moderate-income individuals and households – in communities located throughout the state. HLC’s mission includes compliance monitoring of these units for at least 30 years following initial sale or occupancy.
The Division of Housing Development is responsible for overseeing all aspects of privately-owned affordable and mixed-income rental and ownership housing portfolio receiving Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities (HLC) funding assistance through 18 to 20 key funding programs, including the federal Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, the state LIHTC program, the federal HOME program, and the federal Housing Trust Fund.

The Deputy Director of Housing Development may be responsible for the staff working on these projects, which are adding approximately 2,500 rental units per year to the work unit’s rental portfolio of mixed-income projects and can proceed without direct EOHLC funding.
