Community Housing Benefits Programs
Enhancing Community Well-being Through Collaborative Partnerships and Housing Benefits Initiatives
The Austin Apartment Association (AAA) has partnered with various community organizations aimed at providing housing benefits to their staff. Through these collaborations, we strive to make housing more accessible and affordable for those who serve our community.
Partnership with the Austin Independent School District (AISD)
AISD Teacher Housing Program
The Austin Apartment Association is proud to partner with the Austin Independent School District (AISD) to offer exclusive housing benefits to all AISD employees. Austin ISD Property Directory is a dedicated effort to express gratitude and provide tangible support to the educators and employees of the Austin Independent School District.
By joining forces with AISD, we aim to create a supportive housing environment for the educators, staff, and administrators who play a vital role in shaping the future of our community.
What is the Program? The program offers exclusive housing benefits to AISD employees through partnerships with Austin Apartment Association members. These benefits include discounted rent, waived fees, move-in specials, and more, aimed at making housing more affordable and accessible for AISD staff.
Who is eligible for the program? All employees of the Austin Independent School District are eligible to access the housing benefits program.
Are there any fees or obligations to take advantage of these benefits? There are no fees associated with the program. All participants must be currently employed by AISD.
How can I access benefits? AISD employees can view current participating properties and their benefits offered through the AISD Property Directory on AAA's website. The directory serves as a valuable resource, presenting a curated list of multifamily properties offering economical housing incentives and benefits exclusively for Austin ISD employees.
