ABOUT TETON HABITAT
Everyone deserves a decent place to live
Founded in 1995, Teton Habitat builds truly affordable homes in the Greater Teton Area.
We strengthen our community by building simple, decent homes in partnership with hardworking families in need and people from all walks of life.
As a 100% community-based and community-funded nonprofit, we are proud to build homes for individuals and families living and working in Teton County, Wyoming making between 30-80% Median Family Income (MFI). We are the only housing organization in the community exclusively providing housing for this segment of our community. According to the Teton Region Housing Needs Assessment, 43% of households in our community are earning 80% MFI or less (as of 2025 that is $113,200 for a 4 person household).
OUR MISSION
Seeking to put God's love into action, Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities, and hope.
OUR VISION
Teton Habitat envisions a world where everyone has a decent place to live.
VALUES
Focus on shelter
Advocate for affordable housing
Promote dignity and hope
Support sustainable and transformative development
HOMEOWNER CRITERIA
Partner homeowners are chosen based on three key criteria:
1) need for housing
2) willingness to partner with Habitat
3) ability to pay their Habitat home mortgage
All applicants are screened for credit history, criminal background, and citizenship or permanent resident status.
When selected, our partner homeowners invest at least 500 hours of labor, or "sweat equity," in building their homes and those of their neighbors, and also attend over 25 hours of homeowner education courses to prepare them for successful ownership. The Habitat program is a hand up, not a handout.
