The Louisiana Housing Alliance (LHA) is a nonprofit statewide coalition which works to ensure the preservation and production of quality affordable housing for low and moderate income Louisianans and those with special needs.

LHA has a beginning much different from most housing alliances.  The devastation to the state’s housing stock resulting from Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in 2005 highlighted the need for various nonprofit housing networks, working independently of one another, to collaborate. The movement around hurricane recovery and working in areas suffering widespread destruction has provided an opportunity to identify statewide housing challenges and opportunities.
