The mission of the Chelsea Housing Authority is to provide safe, decent and affordable housing and to establish programs that educate, enhance and empower the lives of all residents in the community we serve.

Supportive Services cuts across all departments of public housing and our department interacts with many organizations that we partner with for services for our residents. Projects include updating communication database, working on collateral, resident outreach, event logistics and special projects. Intern may be asked to interact with residents and other community members.

Please note that while this is an internship in a housing authority, this Supportive Services deals very little with direct placement, occupancy, or other elements of direct day to day management of the units.
