Valley non-profit UMOM is known for shelter, supportive and rehousing services for families experiencing homelessness, but for the past several years it has also branched off into real estate development of affordable housing.
One of its latest builds, Bethany Crossing, is located at Bethany Home Road and 69
th Avenue in Glendale. When complete it will provide subsidized two and three-bedroom apartments for 72 families.
âFamilies who will move into Bethany Crossing, they are not homeless, but they are struggling to make ends meet,â said Jackson Fonder CEO of UMOM.
