Bogan Developments Has Received a $2 Million Award From MSHDA’s Employer Assisted Housing Program

Kalamazoo, MI –Bogan Developments had been awarded $2 million through the Michigan State Housing Development Authority’s (MSHDA) Employer Assisted Housing (EAH) Program, supporting the creation of 20 workforce housing units for Bronson employees earning between 60% and 120% of Area Median Income (AMI).

This investment represents a meaningful step toward addressing Michigan’s workforce housing needs by ensuring that essential workers can live closer to where they work—strengthening families, employers, and communities alike.

“Workforce housing is not just a housing issue—it’s an economic and workforce issue,” said Jamauri Bogan, CEO and Founder of Bogan Developments. “When healthcare workers can afford to live in the communities they serve, everyone benefits. This award reflects a shared commitment to investing in Michigan’s greatest resource: its people.”

The Employer Assisted Housing Program is designed to foster collaboration between state leadership, employers, and developers to create housing solutions that support workforce stability and long-term community health. Through this partnership, Bronson employees will gain access to high-quality housing options that align with their incomes and the realities of today’s housing market.

Bogan Developments extends its gratitude to MSHDA for its continued leadership in advancing workforce housing solutions across Michigan, and to Bronson Methodist Hospital for its partnership and commitment to supporting employees beyond the workplace.

“This award demonstrates what’s possible when public agencies and employers work together with a shared goal,” Bogan added. “Sustained collaboration is essential to meeting Michigan’s housing needs—not just today, but for generations to come.”
