La Villita Housing Cooperative (LVHC) formed in January 2023 with the goal of acquiring buildings in Little Village that would be managed cooperatively by their residents. We have deep connections to this community, and we want to create stable housing options for those with strong ties to Little Village who are most negatively impacted by gentrification and displacement; this includes low- to moderate- income households and people with disabilities.

We intentionally work against discrimination based on race, gender, immigration status, sexual orientation, disability, age, religion, and source of income. We know that diversity is our strength. Our core values are self-help, democracy, equality, equity, solidarity, honesty, mutual aid, mutual respect, and mutual accountability.
