UM Non Profit Housing

What UM Non Profit Housing does

SENPH (Southeast Non-Profit Housing Inc.), formerly Alabama Non-Profit Housing Inc., is a private nonprofit founded in 2006 and headquartered at 8801 Fast Park Dr., Suite 117, Raleigh, North Carolina. The organization delivers workforce training, career services, and affordable housing to migrant and seasonal farmworkers and their families across Alabama, Georgia, and North Carolina through a footprint of 14 office locations in the three states. Its core beneficiary pipeline has produced 4,000+ individuals served with housing since 2020, with 85 people currently funded for permanent housing and a flagship asset — Casa Bonita, a 10-unit USDA Rural Development-funded community in Oneonta, Alabama — having housed 100+ families over a decade since its 2011 development.

The organization's core programs are funded primarily through U.S. Department of Labor National Farmworker Jobs Program (NFJP) grants, including approximately $5 million per year in Career Services & Training grants spanning AL/GA/NC and approximately $6.5 million in Housing Services grants. These are supplemented by modest private philanthropy, exemplified by a $50,000 contribution from Reynolds American in December 2023. The organization employs 40–45 staff led by CEO Jacob C. Rogers (a roughly 15-year veteran), with a senior team comprising a VP of Workforce (Raymond Smith), a VP of Compliance (KaRika Jones), and (until March 2025) a Director of Strategic Initiatives (Barbara Mosley, hired September 2024). Board leadership includes Chair Gerald Reaume, Vice Chair Megan Sloan, Secretary/Treasurer Christina Gonzalez, and member Belinda Thomas.

Revenue mechanics are grant-driven and government-dependent rather than transactional. SENPH competes for multi-year federal NFJP designations by state, supplements with corporate philanthropy, and reinvests proceeds into housing development and direct services rather than building a proprietary technology platform or data product. The operating model is service-delivery heavy, with no disclosed software, data, or AI-driven revenue lines, and no third-party-customer base outside federal and philanthropic funders.
