Located in historic Florence, Omaha, apartments here are located in an historic building that was previously a boarding school, adding a unique history and an antique flair to much of the original building. Notre Dame Housing isn’t just apartments, it’s a community. “I feel like I have 125 neighbors,” said resident Mike Driscoll. With all of the activity at NDH, it’s almost impossible not to find something you enjoy and meet more neighbors.

Our integrated housing approach combines high-quality independent housing for seniors with wrap-around supportive services such as counseling, life skills training, and service coordination. All of this contributes to housing stability allowing people to live independently longer.

To be eligible for residency in a HUD Section 202 apartment unit, a household must be composed of one or more persons at least 62 years of age at the time of initial application, with a household income at or below 50 percent of the area median income.

To be eligible for residents in a Housing Credit Program apartment home, a household must consist of at least one member in the household who is 55 years of age or older at the time of initial application and with a household income at or below the 60% -50% area median income.

Our Low Income Housing Credit program apartments (62 units) offer studio and one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartment homes.
