ABOUT

Our Roots

Moving to Work (MTW) was created in 1996 as a demonstration program for public housing agencies (PHAs). MTW provides PHAs the opportunity to design and test innovative, flexible, local strategies to improve outcomes for their residents and address the affordable housing needs of their communities. 

The MTW Collaborative is a non-profit membership organization that advocates on behalf of MTW communities, educates on MTW issues, and works to broaden the MTW program.
