LHC's mission is to ensure that every Louisiana resident is granted an opportunity to obtain safe, affordable, energy-efficient housing. We administer federal and state funds through programs designed to advance the development of energy-efficient and affordable housing for working families, drive housing policy for Louisiana, and oversee the state's Disaster Housing Task Force.

Each day, this ongoing challenge to produce more safe, affordable, and energy-efficient housing is met by a dedicated staff of professionals who help families make their housing dreams a reality.

LHC Department Updates

Marjorianna Willman selected as LHC Interim-Executive Director

"It is said that 'great leaders inspire greatness in others.' My plans are to create an atmosphere that supports growth and innovation among the team. LHC’s staff is very talented, knowledgeable, and, most of all, battle-tested. The staff has responded to and rebuilt after many disasters, provided emergency housing, provided support for fluctuation in the marketplace, and is now identifying ways to respond to operating deficits due to the insurance crisis threatening multifamily developments. I don’t have to build a capable team; it's already here. I’m very fortunate for the LHC team."
