The mission of the Housing Resource Center (HRC) of Monterey County is to provide a continuum of housing resources for homeless prevention and affordable housing opportunities. HRC fosters community stability, stronger communities, and personal economic empowerment through education, advocacy, counseling and services.
HRC is happy to announce participation in the 2023 MC GIVES! This is your opportunity to support our mission with your generous contribution.
Monterey County Gives! is now a partnership of the Monterey County Weekly, CFMC, the Monterey Peninsula Foundation and our major sponsors, enabling you to donate in traditional ways, or through different types of gifts, such as via your IRA retirement fund.
In last year’s campaign, Monterey County Gives! raised over $11.2 million in six weeks, thanks to more than 7,500 donors. That’s impactful. Since its inception, the program has raised and donated over $56 million to approximately 500 local nonprofits.

Who we are
Our agency has been a staple in our community since the early 1980’s. The names may have changed, but the mission remained the same. We have been advocating for affordable and attainable housing for all who need or request it. We recognize that each community member may be at a different housing phase; some are homeless and need a place to rent, some are at risk of becoming homeless, and some are renters who are looking to purchase a home for the first time. No matter the phase you are in, knowing where to go and who to speak can be rather daunting. With HRC, you know that for as long as you have been supporting us, we also strive to support you in all your housing endeavors.
