In the U.S., some homeshare programs work in specific neighborhoods, others in much larger geographic areas. Some programs target specific populations, but most focus on matching older adults with younger homesharers.

Our goals are to raise awareness of the benefits of homesharing, encourage best practices and cross learning among programs, and to foster the development of new homesharing programs.

The NSHRC, run by experienced volunteers, is a clearinghouse of information for people looking to find a program in their community. If you are looking for a housemate, visit the Program Directory which lists Homesharing programs by State.
