The Sharon Housing Authority (SHA) is a state-chartered housing authority in the small affluent northwestern town of Sharon, Connecticut. The SHA currently owns a 20-unit family rental development at Sharon Ridge. After the local group conducted a needs assessment, they decided to expand on their site to potentially double the number of affordable family housing units. Housing Connections helped this small housing authority identify, interview and hire a consultant to assist with planning the expansion of their current affordable rental housing stock by an additional 12 units.
