Employer Assisted Housing Programs  Brief: Employers may offer compensation or subsidy programs in order to provide financial assistance to all levels of employee. Many of these programs can be incorporated among other tools in the toolkit. Local Impact: Regional Employer Assisted Collaborative Housing – Orange County (REACH-OC) In Orange County, Mary Erickson Community Housing, a non-profit community housing development organization, helps employers organize a program to offer rent and home ownership subsidies. This type of assistance helps them retain and recruit employees, as well as improve their quality of life by affording them greater options for choosing where to live. Companies such as the St. Regis Monarch Beach Resort have engaged Mary Erickson to organize a program that has resulted in reduced turnover, enhanced morale, and other cost reductions.
