Harwich Ecumenical Council for Housing (HECH) is a non-profit organization dedicated to addressing homelessness in Harwich and the surrounding communities of Cape Cod. Founded in 1990, HECH initially focused on finding housing solutions for families facing homelessness and providing assistance for other housing challenges. Over the years, it has evolved into a professionally managed organization, offering affordable rental and homeownership opportunities, administering rental assistance programs, and managing a resident stabilization fund. HECH also operates The Children's Center, a year-round early education preschool program that serves working families in the area.
With a commitment to low and moderate-income families, HECH has become a vital resource in stabilizing Cape Cod communities. Through their efforts, they have developed a portfolio of 44 rental units, facilitated housing rehabilitation programs, and provided emergency assistance to residents of Barnstable County. HECH's dedication to affordable childcare is evident through their administration of scholarship and endowment funds for The Children's Center, ensuring working families have access to affordable childcare solutions. As a grassroots organization, HECH continues to actively support families in accessing affordability resources and assistance from various sources.
