CalHFA is a self-supported state agency that doesn't rely on taxpayers' dollars for its operational costs but regularly administers various state and federal resources on behalf of the state.

At CalHFA, we embrace a culture that is diverse, equitable, and inclusive for everyone by building an organization that is as diverse as the communities we serve. CalHFA believes that diversity provides a competitive advantage, strengthens our innovative capacity, and enhances our ability to succeed and grow.
