The Mission of the Jersey City Housing Authority is to develop and manage Housing of Choice of the highest standards, which is safe, affordable, sustainable and accessible; and, in partnership with outside organizations, foster resident responsibility and self-sufficiency.

In achieving our Mission, the JCHA is committed to:

• Public service which reflects the highest standards of personal integrity, professional performance, public accountability, and a "Do what is necessary to get the job done" approach to our work;
• Promoting reciprocal responsibility on the part of the residents of JCHA public housing, mixed-income and affordable housing developments and Housing Choice Voucher Program participants;
• Facilitating a more effective delivery of public housing and enhancing the sustainability of the Asset Management Properties ("AMPs") developments through the transition to asset-based management and green initiatives.
• Growing partnerships with site resident and neighborhood organizations, local and state governments, private sector developers and property owners, as well as with supportive service providers;
• Making substantial contributions toward creating and sustaining urban neighborhoods which offer all citizens growing opportunities for creating better lives on common ground with more than a bit of human dignity;
• Preserving and protecting the right to safe, affordable housing for victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault or stalking; and
• Accomplishing the above in the full spirit of all civil rights and non-discrimination laws and affirmatively furthering fair housing opportunities.
