Providing opportunity through housing for our community since 1991
At ECHO Housing & Community Development, we believe that improving lives starts with reducing barriers—barriers to housing, social well-being, and economic opportunity.
Everyone deserves a safe, stable place to call home. Guided by that belief, ECHO works with compassion, advocacy, and innovation to help individuals and families overcome obstacles that stand in the way of housing and stability.
Through eight housing-centric programs, we provide a continuum of care that addresses the diverse needs of people experiencing homelessness or housing instability. From emergency shelter, permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing and prevention to affordable rental homes, each program plays a vital role in creating a stronger, more resilient community.
Located in Vanderburgh County – Evansville, Indiana, ECHO extends its services throughout southwest Indiana. In addition to our federally funded programs, we operate as a Community Development Corporation (CDC) by revitalizing neighborhoods. We collaborate with a wide network of community partners to advance our mission, vision, and core values—promoting housing equity, fostering economic mobility, and strengthening communities from the ground up.
Together, we’re building more than housing. We’re building opportunity, stability, and hope.
I spent years being homeless, on the streets, in shelters and living in parks. I couldn’t believe it when I was informed that I would be moving into my own apartment. I pray every night, thanking ECHO Housing staff for the opportunity they have given me. I am truly blessed.
I ended up on the streets with nowhere to go and was becoming hopeless. As a Veteran, I knew there was help somewhere. Finally, Echo Housing became a part of my life and helped me get my own place and things for my home. My whole life was changed. It has been a blessing.
I was homeless, living on the streets for 8 years when ECHO Housing found me. I now have a home of my own.
I am disabled and in a wheelchair. I had made some bad choices that left me homeless on the streets. If it wasn’t for ECHO Housing, I am not sure I would have made it.
I spent 31 years in prison. When I was released, I had nowhere to go and I felt like no one wanted to give me a chance. ECHO Housing helped me transition back into society.
Finally Home!!
So excited to finally have a place for my kids and I to call home! It’s been a long journey! So very grateful to everyone at ECHO for helping me make this happen! You guys are awesome!
“My caseworker Christa taught me how to use some of the functions on my new Phone!”
“I’ve met one of my goals by working a full-time job for almost 2 months after not working at all in 10 years.”
“Being given this golden opportunity—a chance at permanent housing and a program that truly uplifts lives—has been a major blessing. The selfless, non-judgmental support from ECHO Housing staff restored my hope and guided me toward a better path. I may not call myself a success yet, but I’ve improved in so many ways, and for that, I will always be grateful.”

🌟 CANdid Conversations: Community Input Needed! 🌟
On October 4th, CANdid Conversations on WEOA dives into:
“Collaboration That Works: When the Sectors Click” A deep look at how housing, health, food, and other sectors can partner to build stronger communities.
👉 What does “cross-sector” mean?
It’s when different parts of the community—nonprofits, businesses, schools, healthcare, and government—work together on shared goals. By combining resources and strengths, they can tackle big challenges like homelessness, food insecurity, or health in ways no single group could do alone.
💬 We want to hear from YOU! Share your thoughts before the show:
In your experience, what makes a cross-sector partnership truly effective and lasting?
Can you share a time when you saw organizations come together to solve a problem in the community?
What challenges do you think often prevent housing, health, and food organizations from collaborating—and how could those be overcome?
If you could design the “ideal partnership” between sectors, what would it look like?
How do you think cross-sector partnerships impact people’s day-to-day lives, especially those facing housing or food insecurity?
✍️ Fill out our short community feedback form here: [INSERT LINK]
Your answers may be featured in the Resident Report during the October 4th broadcast!
