Amherst H. Wilder Foundation
Contact Person: Nancy Ketchel
Phone: 651-223-7291
Email: njk@wilder.org
Residents of Wilder housing include disabled single adults, families, and seniors. Wilder owns or manages 12 affordable housing properties and over 100 scattered-site apartments in the greater Saint Paul, Minnesota area. All housing sites include on-site management and support services. Service packages, which vary by site, include assisting residents in developing financial, employment and living skills that will increase their chances of maintaining their housing.

Many of the residents of Wilder housing face multiple challenges that can affect their ability to maintain stable housing. At Wilder, we believe that housing alone is not enough. A single mother who has trouble paying rent might need help finding a better-paying job. An elderly widower may require health monitoring, meals or housekeeping services in order to live independently. A struggling family might benefit from financial counseling or referrals to community services. Without supportive services, affordable housing is often just inexpensive, short-term shelter—a place to live until the next financial or family emergency forces a move.
