The Northside Coalition for Fair Housing is an organization that represents the residents of Northside Associates properties. The homes are a 300+ unit, scattered site, HUD-assisted rental housing development in the Northside area of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The majority of these homes are occupied by low-income, single female-headed households. The properties are located in four neighborhoods. One of these neighborhoods, California-Kirkbride, is comprised of very low and extremely low income families, and exhibits many indicators of distress. These are areas of high unemployment, abandoned or deteriorated housing and a general lack of neighborhood amenities. The other neighborhoods, Central Northside, Charles Street Valley, and Perry Hilltop are experiencing generally increasing property values. This is resulting in a decline of affordable housing opportunities and is very instrumental in creating a lost community of impoverished residents.
The Northside Coalition for Fair Housing is always guided by the following principles:

Teaching Ability
Encouragement
Empowerment
Commitment
Compassion
Simplicity
Inclusion
Integrity
Humility
Empathy
Equality
Justice
Unity
