Housing Waitlists

Subsidized Housing

Rent is based on a percentage of the tenant’s income (usually 30%), and the subsidy is tied to the specific unit—not the tenant. Tenants must meet income and eligibility requirements.

Units are rent subsidized by Home Forward, with tenants generally paying approximately 30% of their income toward rent. Interested applicants should submit a pre-application when the waitlist is open and maintain their current mailing address with the Housing Office.

Please refer to Tenant Selection Plan for more details, available on individual housing webpages by clicking on the building names in the table above.

Unsubsidized / Affordable Market-Rate

These units are priced at or below local fair market rent, but do not include direct rental subsidies. They’re more affordable than typical market-rate units, but tenants pay the full rent out of pocket.

These unit are NOT rent subsidized in any way and tenants are responsible for paying the full monthly rent amount on-time. Applicants may bring their own rent subsidy with them for consideration. Interested applicants generally must be able to demonstrate income to cover 1.5 times the monthly rent amount (for example, if rent is $600, CCC must verify that applicant earns at least $900 in monthly income, has ongoing subsidy commitment for at least the length of initial lease to cover rent).

Please refer to the Building Criteria for more details, available on individual housing webpages by clicking on the building names in the table above.

Subsidized / Program-Based Housing

Typically offers deeply affordable rent, often supported by specific contracts or partnerships. At CCC, FAN housing is usually tied to supportive services and may prioritize certain populations (e.g. people exiting homelessness or recovery).

These units participate in the FAN program. Interested applicants will need to meet the following eligibility requirements:

1. Has minimum 60 days of verifiable sobriety.
2. Has or is anticipated to graduate from residential treatment or outpatient applicant engaging in verifiable ongoing program of recover.
3. Family must be homeless at time of application or intake.
4. Must have documentation that applicant will have at least one child in physical custody upon securing housing. Single household applicants that apply and do not meet these criteria will be denied.

Please refer to the Building Criteria for more details, available on individual housing webpages by clicking on the building names in the table above.

Housing that requires residents to maintain sobriety and supports a recovery-focused lifestyle. These communities are designed to provide a safe, stable environment for individuals committed to living alcohol- and drug-free.

Households applying for ADFC housing must have 1.) at least one household member with at least 90 days of verifiable sobriety and 2.) verified ongoing participation in a recognized program of recovery from chemical dependency or alcoholism.

When a unit is available and the waitlist applicant is contacted, they will be required to provide a urine sample for analysis. Applicants with positive results for illegal drugs or alcohol will be denied. “Illegal drug use” includes the use of marijuana due to presence of federal funding and will result in denial.

CCC makes every effort to keep rent information on this page up to date to assist with applicant decision-making. However, all rents are subject to change due to regular annual increases or other factors. The presence of a rent figure on this list does not guarantee an applicant’s eligibility for that rate and if a rent range is listed, availability at the lower end of that range is not guaranteed.

For current unit rents, please contact the Housing Office at (503) 525-8483.

Most applicants are required to pay a $20 fee for the criminal/background screening, except for those applying to Section 8 properties. Applicants to Section 8 properties are not charged for their screening report.

Screening reports are processed through either Pacific Screening or Background Investigations.

You can find eligibility and application information in a property’s Building Criteria and/or Tenant Selection Plan.

These documents are available on each property’s housing webpage. Click the building name in the table above, then navigate to the “Waitlists” or “Eligibility and Screening” sections.
