Vision:
Every person has a home and is interconnected within community.

Mission: Create and sustain quality affordable homes that strengthen lives and community.




Work with a diverse group of people,
one that reflects the communities Aeon serves, including residents of neighborhoods and Aeon properties, along with business and community leaders. Board members are not expected to represent a particular category or constituency; rather they are encouraged to bring a broad perspective to the board’s deliberations and actions.

Act as the steward of the public’s trust, upholding high standards of accountability. Aeon has adopted a policy governance model of operations, where the board has two main functions:

Governing relates to the exercise of legal authority and strategic leadership over the activities of the organization, determining the values and principles that guide the board and staff, and instituting policies to shape Aeon activities.

Monitoring relates to the responsibility of ensuring adherence to board established policies and government regulations and laws, along with the responsibility of analyzing and assessing organizational performance as a whole.

Are part of an award winning organization that provides more than 2,700 individuals a safe and quality place to live.

Receive board training and a comprehensive orientation, so no prior board experience is required.
