Intake and Eligibility Specialist
Breaking Ground
Breaking Ground
Breaking Ground operates nearly 4,000 units of housing across New York City, along with housing in upstate New York and Connecticut. Supportive housing - affordable housing paired with services designed to help people maintain their homes for the long-term - is widely recognized as a proven and cost-effective solution to chronic homelessness.
But we didn't stop at providing housing. Breaking Ground's programs and services help people experiencing street homelessness - especially those who have been on the streets the longest - to come indoors. Through our Street to Home outreach program and transitional housing resources, we help people get, and stay, on the path to a permanent home.
Breaking Ground is the largest developer and manager of permanent supportive housing in New York. Since its founding in 1990, Breaking Ground is regarded as industry leaders in the marketing, lease-up, quality assurance and compliance for projects financed through the federal Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program. The Leasing and Compliance Team oversees the marketing, tenant selection, and compliance for projects as well as annual compliance and recertification for buildings.
Reporting to the Leasing Manager, the Intake and Eligibility Specialist screens leasing applicants for a portfolio of Breaking Ground's supportive housing and affordable housing that is managed by Breaking Ground. The Intake and Eligibility Specialist works directly with affordable and special needs applicants assisting them with the housing application process.
