HOMESHARING PROGRAM DIRECTORY
This Program Directory lists independent Home Sharing Programs around the Country to help consumers who want to Home Share. NSHRC is not a housing provider. The Directory is made available to help you find a program that exists in your area. NSHRC does not have legal authority over programs listed in the Directory.
If you are currently operating a non-profit Home Sharing Program and would like to be listed on the NSHRC Program Directory, please view the criteria to list your Home Sharing Program. If your program meets the criteria, you will have the opportunity to complete an application to be listed on this website.
