Full job description
The Urban Homesteading Assistance Board (UHAB) is seeking a Mitchell-Lama Co-op Preservation Project Associate. The primary function of this role is to work with affordable housing co-op residents to protect and strengthen their housing.
The ideal candidate will be passionate about housing justice and eager to learn about affordable cooperative housing models and other related policy issues.
About UHAB
UHAB empowers low- to moderate-income residents to take control of their housing and enhance communities by creating strong tenant associations and lasting affordable co-ops. Since 1973, UHAB has helped form hundreds of tenant associations and transformed troubled rental buildings into 1,200 affordable co-ops, providing homeownership opportunities for over 25,000 families. With democratic community control at the core of our mission, we work to sustain this thriving affordable housing community for this generation and those to come.
We organize residents to be active participants and decision-makers in shaping their neighborhoods. UHAB’s programs address a full spectrum of affordable housing needs: from building resident power and organizing tenants as community leaders, to developing thousands of units of affordable housing across the Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn, and Manhattan, to making small loans to first-time homeowners, to preserving affordable co-ops through training, education, and technical assistance. UHAB’s programs address the needs of future generations through long-term solutions: developing new affordable co-ops, increasing energy efficiency and introducing renewable technologies, and strengthening housing policy.
About the Preservation Department
Co-op Preservation staff is a dedicated team that works to support existing low-income housing cooperatives (HDFCs and Mitchell-Lama) and city-owned buildings converting to cooperatives, through technical, organizational, and financial planning assistance, including loan packaging and work-out plans for distressed housing co-ops.
The Training and Technical Assistance contract team give free technical assistance to over 1,300 HDFCs and nearly 80 city-owned buildings undergoing co-op conversion across the city.
The Preservation Monitoring team provide contractual compliance assistance to over 200 HDFCs.
Our Co-op Improvement Program works with building residents of distressed HDFC co-ops to create individualized remediation work-out plans.
Under our newly acquired Mitchell-Lama Training and Technical Assistance contract, Project Associates will work with 37 Mitchell-Lama cooperatives across the state providing training and technical assistance.
Responsibilities
The Project Associate works with the Director of Mitchell-Lama Co-op Preservation to assess the overall needs of each co-op and develop a strategy to assist, stabilize and improve each one. Additionally, you will work with the Senior Director of Co-op Preservation and the Director of Contracts on an as needed basis.
The PA will:
Provide technical assistance and referrals to a portfolio of Mitchell-Lama cooperatives.
Develop, adapt, and deliver materials for in-person and virtual trainings.
Conduct outreach to invite Mitchell-Lama residents to scheduled trainings and to develop relationships with boards of directors.
Help boards of directors and shareholders organize effectively to improve the performance of their co-op. Work to identify problems, clarify goals, and implement plans to meet those goals.
Attend virtual and in-person meetings (often in the evening) with co-op residents and leaders on an as- needed basis.
Collaborate with contract partners Strada and Energy EDC to holistically support the health of the co-ops.
Maintain open lines of communication, positive working relationships, and high levels of trust with co-op boards.
Create reports to enable the organization to track and bill for services provided under the contracts that support our work.
Participate in UHAB wide meetings, committees & activities and contribute to improving and promoting the organization.

UHAB empowers low- to moderate-income residents to take control of their housing and enhance communities by creating strong tenant associations and lasting affordable co-ops.
