Strengthening Communities. Closing Gaps.
11th House Initiatives is a nonprofit organization dedicated to strengthening communities through capacity building, systems improvement, and gap-filling program development.
OUR MISSION
11th House Initiatives advances equitable community outcomes by strengthening organizational capacity, developing effective systems, and launching programs that address unmet needs in underserved and low- and moderate-income communities.
WHAT WE DO
We work at the intersection of community need, systems design, and program implementation. Our work focuses on:
Building organizational and programmatic capacity
Improving systems that support energy, housing, and community programs
Developing and launching gap-filling initiatives where needs persist
Partnering with utilities, public agencies, and community organizations to deliver measurable, equitable outcomes
OUR STORY
11th House Initiatives was created to sustain and expand community-centered programs that improve quality of life for underserved and low- and moderate-income households.
The organization was founded by the leadership of Eleventh House Solutions, a management consulting firm with more than fifteen years of experience providing mission-driven project management, administrative services, and government solutions. Through this work, the founding team has served as the operational and systems backbone for millions of dollars in public-benefit programs, working closely with utilities, state agencies, local governments, contractors, and nonprofit partners.
As community needs evolved and capacity gaps emerged, 11th House Initiatives was established as a nonprofit platform to ensure continuity of services, prevent disruption to residents, and provide a mission-driven structure capable of sustaining and expanding this work when existing organizational models were no longer sufficient.
11th House Initiatives operates independently with its own Board of Directors and governance policies, while leveraging administrative and technical support through a formal, board-approved service agreement. This structure allows the organization to respond quickly to community needs, maintain strong accountability, and partner effectively with public agencies and community stakeholders to deliver meaningful, long-term impact.
PROGRAM FOCUS
11th House Initiatives develops and supports community-based programs that strengthen local systems, reduce barriers, and improve long-term outcomes for underserved and low- and moderate-income communities. Our work is intentionally flexible and responsive, allowing us to address evolving needs across multiple sectors.
Current and emerging program areas may include, but are not limited to:
Energy efficiency and affordability initiatives for income-qualified households
Affordable and stable housing programs
Capacity-building and financial pass-through support for small and community-based organizations
Program administration and backbone support for public-benefit initiatives
Gap-filling projects that address unmet community needs
Programs are designed to complement existing efforts, avoid duplication, and align resources where they can deliver the greatest impact.
PARTNERSHIP APPROACH
We collaborate with utilities, state and local agencies, nonprofit organizations, and community partners to strengthen existing programs and, where appropriate, develop new initiatives that address unmet needs.
Our work emphasizes coordination, accountability, and sustainability to ensure public and philanthropic investments translate into real benefits for households and communities.
