Building New Homes Across Oregon and Southwest Washington
Proud Ground has been involved in a number of housing development ventures over the years. Our commitment to housing equity ensures each unit reflects community values and needs. In collaboration with local partners and developers, we create lasting spaces that strengthen community ties and enhance residents' quality of life.
Together, we are advancing fair housing in the Pacific Northwest.
New Spirit Village: Homes available now
Bringing affordable housing and stability to a community recovering from wildfires.
The Thalden Foundation dedicated funds to building New Spirit Village in response to the high level of need for affordable housing after the Almeda wildfire, which destroyed more than 2,600 homes and displaced more than 3,000 people across Oregon’s Jackson County.
Made up of 87 charming, single family detached homes complete with private driveways, fenced yards, appliances, and storage sheds, New Spirit Village goes beyond the standard affordable-housing-developments template.
Homes are currently available and more are coming soon. Visit the Available Properties page to see the Hummingbird, Bluebird, and Dove model units and for more information.
Oregon Gov. Tina Kotek, flanked by Ashland's Barry and Kathryn Thalden, performs the official ribbon-cutting to celebrate the opening of New Spirit Village in Medford in August 2024. See the KOBI-NBC 5 story.
