About

Community Opportunity Fund (COF) was founded in 2016 as a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) to support the role that affordable and mixed-income housing can provide to equalizing the distribution of opportunity.

The COF advances its work by contributing to theories of opportunity, providing platforms for research, and data collection, and by funding or engaging in the direct delivery of a range of services to residents in affordable housing in the US.

COF aims to improve residents’ wellbeing and address opportunity disparities by funding or facilitating a range of services addressing health, racial, economic, environmental, and other inequities in affordable housing communities.
