ReJenerate Housing Cooperative will be Madison’s first housing cooperative that combines environmental sustainability, affordable housing, and diversity and inclusion at this scale.
In 2019 a trio of local, cooperative housing developers purchased two homes on Jenifer Street in Madison with a vision to create something better. After a ton of work and grant writing, major remodel planning, and outreach, RefineJenifer, LLC set the stage for the non-profit ReJenerate Housing Cooperative (RHC) to exist.
RHC is a non-profit with a Board of Directors who are committed to laying the groundwork on this project, while allowing flexibility for future residents to shape the community they live in.
