Wakeland was established in 1999 as a nonprofit corporation. Our mission is:

To develop quality affordable housing projects with resident-education programs for low-income families.

With its for-profit and non-profit partners, Wakeland has developed, acquired and rehabilitated over 5,000 units of affordable housing, emerging as a leader in affordable housing communities in San Diego and throughout California.

Wakeland works with a variety of municipalities, developers and redevelopment agencies throughout California. We utilize federal, state and local funding resources including tax exempt bonds and tax credits and leverage other funds from the private and public sectors.

Wakeland's board of directors is comprised of affordable-housing, community and business leaders. Our team of highly qualified staff has expertise in both affordable housing and on-site resident service programs that offer unique opportunities for families and individuals to enhance their job marketability and enrich their lives.
