See https:

//habitatlafayette.org/ The LHFH Board of Directors seeks exceptional candidates for the role of Executive Director with the ability to lead one of the most productive affiliates of Habitat for Humanity in the state of Louisiana. Lafayette Habitat for Humanity serves the greater Lafayette area with first-time homeownership and home preservation programs, including new home construction, homeownership counseling, mortgage financing and loan servicing, critical home repairs for owner-occupied homes, and support for resident-led neighborhood revitalization initiatives in Lafayette's urban core. LHFH also operates a ReStore, which provides a source of affordable home goods and building materials as well as operating revenue for our core homeownership programs.
