NPH is gearing up for the third year of our successful Bay Area Housing Internship Program (BAHIP), a one-year paid internship to help recruit diverse young talent into the affordable housing development industry. 

BAHIP interns are students from Bay Area colleges and universities who have a passion for serving their diverse communities through increasing affordable housing opportunities. They are placed at host agencies – leading nonprofit affordable housing developers – for a one-year, paid internship to learn the basics of affordable housing real estate development. 

We are pleased to announce that applications are now open for nonprofit developers to become Host Agencies for our talented interns in the 2020-2021 program year. 

Modeled after the highly successful Rural West Internship Program of the California Coalition for Rural Housing (CCRH), BAHIP helps the affordable housing and community development field ensure that we reflect the diverse needs, views, and talents of our Bay Area communities. 

As a Host Agency, you will support this crucial mission while benefiting from the unique insights and contributions of our BAHIP interns.

Requirements:

• Interested Host Agencies must develop or rehab affordable housing and must be current NPH members. 
• Host Agency applicants who have not previously hosted a BAHIP intern must have at least one representative participate in the informational webinar on Tuesday, December 3rd, 1:00pm-2:00pm or Wednesday December 4th, 11:00am-12:00pm. To RSVP for either of these sessions, please register with Monica Joe, Racial Equity and Inclusion Program Manager at [email protected]. Please include the name and title of the representative who will attend.

How to apply:

• The deadline to submit Host Agency applications is Friday, December 20, 2019 by 5:00pm. 
• Host Agencies that have previously hosted a BAHIP intern can complete the simplified application via Word doc here or via an online form here.
