Everyone deserves a place to call home
Since 1991, Dubuque and Jackson Counties Habitat for Humanity has empowered local families through affordable homeownership. We believe affordable housing transforms lives and builds strong communities.
With the first-ever Habitat pocket neighborhood currently in progress at the Wood Street/Mt. Pleasant build site, there’s never been a better time to get involved.
We build strength, stability and self-reliance through shelter.
Habitat for Humanity partners with people in our local community to help them build or improve a place they can call home. Affordable housing plays a critical role in strong and stable communities.

Kayla Denniston * Rosalynn Carter Place homeownerMy kids always said they wanted us to have a house, it just seemed like I was going to bury myself financially if I did try to pursue homeownership. I kind of just thought it was a one-in-a-million chance.
I'm just so happy, it's like winning the lottery!
