Patton Home was built in 1890 with money raised by 29 women, on land donated by a pioneer who herded sheep along the Oregon Trail. It was managed for over a century by the Ladies Union Relief Society of the Methodist Church. Mathew Patton, the original owner of Patton Home, donated the property to the women with a stipulation that they use the building to provide food, shelter, and friendship to those in need. Today, Patton Home continues a tradition of serving people in need. The 120-year-old residential facility offers home-style accommodations for 63 residents.

Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC)

Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC)

Since this property has received funding in part through the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, a certain number of units are set aside for lower income households. Households must earn either less than 50% or 60% of the area median income (depending on the set-aside option chosen by the property owner) to qualify for these units. Rents in these units are capped at a maximum of 30% of the set-aside area median income (adjusted for unit size). Some rental units in this property may not be subject to LIHTC and therefore have higher rents and no maximum household income requirement.
