About Us
Neighborhood Housing Services of Provo, doing business as NeighborWorks Provo, is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization that has been providing vital community services to the downtown neighborhoods of Provo, Utah, since 1992. In the early days, our focus was on owner occupied home improvement loans, community volunteer clean up and volunteer home painting events. We have since evolved into building affordable homes, purchase, rehabilitation and resale of dilapidated homes, and have become the first successful nonprofit mortgage lender in the state of Utah.
Our community services include foreclosure avoidance and remediation counseling, home buyer education classes, credit restoration counseling, rental services, homeownership opportunities, and community event planning. All of our programs for counseling are at no cost!
Our strategic and business plans aid us in aligning ourselves better with the current economic conditions of our great state. As a private nonprofit organization, we pride ourselves in maintaining the flexibility to adjust to the current and most urgent needs of our fellow constituents, including expanding our service area to the greater portion of Central Utah, in all business lines and consulting services for partner agencies.
Mission Statement: NeighborWorks Provo helps create neighborhoods of choice by increasing home ownership, improving housing quality and promoting neighborhood unity and leadership. Our vision of the future is to increase our capacity to effect positive change in our target areas, and to achieve our goal of neighborhood revitalization.
