For The People Who Make New Orleans, Home Matters.

New Orleans Area Habitat for Humanity's vision is a Greater New Orleans where hardworking families can access affordable homeownership, live near their jobs, and thrive in safe, connected, and climate-resilient communities—strengthening the region’s economic vitality and long-term stability. 2025 marked a significant step forward as construction began on the first homes in Rising Oaks. 

Rising Oaks is a bold, innovative solution to the affordable housing crisis — offering pathways to homeownership rooted in long-term stability, sustainability, and community. This thoughtfully planned, 150-home neighborhood goes beyond housing. With affordable homes, green spaces, shared amenities, and close access to jobs, transit, healthcare, and shopping, Rising Oaks is designed to support whole-person well-being and generational opportunity. It’s not just about where people live — it’s about how they live. Rising Oaks redefines what’s possible when affordable homeownership meets intentional, community-centered design.
