Sustaining local communities with affordable, appealing, and long-term workforce housing solutions that spark positive change for every resident in the region.
ARCH delivers well-designed, lasting housing to a huge variety of Blaine County residents—on time, on budget, and affordable for the long-term.
“A ‘force multiplier’ enhances the probability of successful mission accomplishment. ARCH is truly a ‘force multiplier’ for the Blaine County School District.
They are incredibly efficient at building homes, but when you also consider the services they provide beyond construction, they have become an essential partner.
Now with a growing number of units in our workforce housing program, ARCH has stepped into managing the units, alleviating the school district of a responsibility outside of our core mission.
With internal BCSD resources free to focus on educating our communities’ students, ARCH’s impact on the success of our workforce housing program is hard to adequately quantify.”
— Dan Turner, Blaine County School District
