General Information

The 2008 Appropriations Act added the Alaska Housing Finance Corporation (AHFC) as a Moving to Work agency.

AHFC’s mission is to provide access to safe, quality affordable housing. AHFC is a self-supporting public corporation with offices in 16 communities statewide. It provides statewide financing for multi-family complexes, congregate facilities, and single-family homes, with special loans for first-time home buyers, low-to-moderate income borrowers, veterans, teachers, nurses, public safety officers, and those living in rural areas of the state. AHFC also provides energy and weatherization programs, low-income rental assistance in 17 communities, and special programs for the homeless. Since 1986, AHFC has contributed more than $1.8 billion to Alaska’s State budget revenues through cash transfers, capital projects, and debt service payments.

AHFC’s headquarters is located in Anchorage, Alaska.

This year, AHFC:

  • Provided rental assistance to nearly 6,000 families through Housing Choice Vouchers for rentals in the private sector and AHFC-owned public housing.
  • Provided more than 600 assisted rental units for seniors and persons with disabilities.
  • Contributed $25 million to private landlords for rental assistance for Alaskans who earn less than 50 percent of the median income.
  • Completed the second of two phases of renovation of 48 family housing units at Alpine Terrace in Anchorage.

Currently AHFC manages 1,334 public housing units and 4,214 Housing Choice Voucher units.

Status

AHFC signed its MTW agreement on June 24, 2008. Its MTW participation will run through June 30, 2018. Additional information will be provided upon submission and approval of AHFC’s Moving to Work Annual Plan
