Income-Aligned Housing Month!

As we step into May, I’m grateful to recognize Income-Aligned Housing Month—an important opportunity to elevate the conversation around housing security and stability in Broomfield. Income-aligned housing reflects a simple but powerful idea: that the cost of a home should be in balance with what people earn. As housing costs continue to outpace wages, many of our neighbors are feeling increasing strain.

Housing impacts everything - health, stability, and opportunity - and BHA is proud of the efforts taking place throughout Broomfield to respond with compassion, innovation, and cooperation.

We encourage you to participate this month - attend events, listen, learn, share, and become part of a larger community effort. There is no "us vs. them" in this work, only a collective effort. When we unite as a community, we move closer to a future where everyone in Broomfield has a secure, stable place to call home.

In Gratitude,

Kristin Hyser, Executive Director

A Milestone Worth Celebrating!

I’m thrilled to share that the Broomfield Housing Alliance (BHA) has been nominated for a 2026 Broomfield Area Chamber Annual Business Award! Just four years ago, BHA launched as an independent housing authority with a bold vision and a deep commitment to our community. To be recognized so early in our journey is not only an honor—it’s a powerful affirmation that this work matters. And regardless of the outcome, we already have something extraordinary to celebrate. Since our launch in 2022, 451 affordable rental homes have come online or been financed in Broomfield—and nearly 550 more are in the pipeline. That’s 1,000 affordable homes. One thousand opportunities for stability. One thousand doorways to safety, dignity, and the chance to build a future.

Behind every number is a neighbor. A senior on a fixed income. A working family. A young adult just starting out. A person who can now focus on thriving instead of surviving.

This nomination belongs to our Board, our staff, our partners, and a community that believes housing is foundational. We are deeply grateful to do this work in Broomfield—and even more energized about what’s ahead.

The momentum is real. The impact is tangible. And we are just getting started.

In Gratitude,

Kristin Hyser, Executive Director

Thank You, Bob, for Your Leadership

For the past four years, Bob Munroe has provided steady, thoughtful leadership as Chair of the Broomfield Housing Alliance Board, guiding the organization through its formative years with vision and integrity. Under his leadership, BHA has grown from a newly launched housing authority into a driving force for affordable housing in our community.

On behalf of BHA staff and our board members, we extend our sincere gratitude to Bob for his time, commitment, and unwavering belief in our mission. While he is stepping down as Board Chair, we are grateful that he will continue to serve on the Board and support the important work ahead.

Grove Construction Update

Construction at The Grove at Cottonwood is progressing steadily! All buildings are now dried in, and installation of building systems is well underway, bringing us closer to welcoming our first residents.

Meanwhile, BHA staff are actively collaborating with community partners to design supportive service programming and prepare future residents for independent living. Recently, our team presented to FRIENDS of Broomfield and Imagine! participants to share how affordable housing works and guide families and caregivers on preparing for a smooth and successful lease-up process.
