Why TDA?
TDA works in affordable housing every day. We understand that compliance documents must satisfy program requirements, but they also need to work in the real world.
Our approach combines affordable housing experience, resident engagement, fair housing principles, practical implementation, and portfolio-level efficiency.
We work with:
Affordable Housing Developers • Property Owners • Management Companies • Nonprofit Housing Organizations • USDA-RD Properties • HUD-Assisted Communities • Preservation Transactions • Rural Housing Portfolios
Whether you need a Resident Support Plan for a new application, ongoing resident-services support across a portfolio, or assistance keeping AFHMPs current, TDA can become an extension of your development, compliance, and property-management teams.
Let’s strengthen affordable housing communities together.

Our Services
Affordable Housing Resident Services and Compliance Support
Trinity Development Alliance, Inc. (TDA) provides specialized consulting and implementation support to affordable housing owners, developers, management companies, and nonprofit partners.
With experience supporting affordable and rural housing communities, TDA develops practical, property-specific plans designed to meet program requirements while strengthening resident outcomes.
Resident Support Plans — HUD and USDA Rural Development Applications
Preparing a new affordable housing application, preservation transaction, acquisition, or rehabilitation project?
TDA develops Resident Support Plans for HUD and USDA Rural Development (USDA-RD) properties, helping owners and development teams establish a thoughtful resident-services strategy as part of the initial application and development process.
Services may include:
* Resident population and community needs assessment
* Identification of appropriate resident programs and supportive services
* Community resource and service-provider research
* Resident engagement strategies
* Referral and partnership frameworks
* Implementation responsibilities and procedures
* Performance measures and documentation strategies
* Coordination with development, management, and compliance teams
* Preparation of a clear, implementation-ready Resident Support Plan (RSP)
Our goal is not simply to produce a plan for an application. We develop plans that property management teams can realistically implement after closing and throughout the property’s operations.
Ongoing Resident Support Plans and Services
Effective resident services should meet individuals and families where they are.
TDA provides ongoing resident-services planning and support for existing affordable housing communities, including scattered portfolios and properties in rural communities where access to services can be particularly challenging.
Our ongoing services can include:
* Resident needs and satisfaction surveys
* Survey analysis and identification of priority needs
* Annual Resident Support Plan development and updates
* Identification of local, regional, and virtual service resources
* Outreach to community organizations and service providers
* Development of referral networks
* Resident communications and engagement materials
* Support for property-management implementation
* Program tracking and documentation
* Preparation for management and compliance reviews
* Portfolio-wide resident-services processes and tools
Rather than imposing a one-size-fits-all program, TDA helps identify the services residents actually need and connects those needs with resources available in the surrounding community.
Affirmative Fair Housing Marketing Plans (AFHMP)
TDA assists affordable housing owners and management companies with the development and updating of Affirmative Fair Housing Marketing Plans (AFHMPs).
Services include:
* New AFHMP preparation
* Annual review and updates
* Comprehensive five-year AFHMP updates
* Review of demographic and market-area information
* Identification and evaluation of populations least likely to apply
* Review and development of targeted marketing strategies
* Community and agency outreach research
* Advertising and outreach recommendations
* Review of marketing materials and practices
* Coordination with management teams to support implementation
For organizations managing multiple properties, TDA can also help create a consistent portfolio-wide AFHMP review and update process, reducing the administrative burden on individual property teams while maintaining property-specific documentation.
