About Houston Habitat for Humanity: 

Houston Habitat for Humanity, (Houston Habitat), is part of a global nonprofit organization that is committed to its mission that seeks to put God’s Love into action by bringing people together to build homes, community, and hope. 

For the past 38 years Houston Habitat has partnered with families to overcome barriers to home ownership and address the shortage of affordable housing. Today, Houston Habitat is still committed to pursuing its vision of a world where everyone has a decent place to live. 

Our charge is to help low-income Houstonians achieve strength, stability, and self-reliance through affordable home ownership. 

Through shelter, we empower people to build a better future for themselves and their families by completing financial and home maintenance training, building homes alongside volunteers, and by purchasing their homes with an affordable mortgage. Houston Habitat has fundamentally changed lives - building strength, stability, and self-reliance - right here in our community through new homeownership opportunities. Strong and stable families in self - sufficient homes create strong and stable communities. 

The values that underpin and shape our work and approach are: 

• Respect. Be open, transparent, and inclusive. Listen without judgment. Treat others as they desire to be treated—value differences. 
• Accountability. Honor commitments or communicate if you cannot do so. Own your words, actions, and results. 
• Effective Communication. Communicate with empathy, clarity, and purpose. Practice active listening—listen to understand, not to respond. Ask clarifying questions to gain and confirm understanding. Create a space where it is safe to speak. 
• Mission Driven. Be intentional in using knowledge, expertise, and influence to advocate for and advance the mission. 
• Entrepreneurial Attitude. Be a lifelong learner open to personal and professional development. Seek continuous improvement and transformative change, embracing innovation, strategic thinking, and agile execution. 
• Leadership Mindset. Be courageous. Serve first, empowering, and uplifting others while demonstrating compassion and support. Create a joyful environment.
