Mission-Driven Developer Program
Module's Mission-Driven Developer Program supports housing providers developing
New affordable, mixed-income, and workforce housing in historically disinvested communities.
Congratulations to the 2024 Cohort
“Engaging with our MDDP applicants was energizing. We connected with passionate developers from across the U.S., each doing important work in their communities. This first cohort of awardees will expand Module’s impact even further.”
Mission-Driven
Module's vision is to create a world where everyone lives in a well-designed space they are proud to call home. Affordable housing is an important part of building a strong community; however, delivering these types of housing projects can be an uphill battle. Oftentimes, projects with great potential struggle to get off the ground due to lack of funding, lack of capacity, and challenging entitlement processes. Module wants to chip away at some of these challenges in communities that have suffered from historic disinvestment and face many barriers to creating new, dignified housing.
Module has selected eight housing providers across five states pursuing innovative approaches to increasing the housing supply and expanding access to homeownership in their communities.
Module will offer discounted design services and technical assistance to the 2024 Mission Driven Developers. Developers will have access to office hours with experienced mentors and free access to Module's design, construction, and development playbooks. Additionally, developers in the program will receive priority on Module’s manufacturing line, significantly reducing cycle times for projects that deliver affordable housing where they are needed most.

“If I had to choose one word to describe Module it would be grind. This is a company full of people who believe in modular construction and great design as a way to solve the housing crisis. They get out there and they do whatever they have to do -in whatever temperature- to get it done. Grind, definitely.”
