DMHC was chartered in 1976 in the State of Tennessee with the mission of providing affordable housing to the elderly who are unable to meet the expense of housing without assistance.
The Housing Corporation was founded under the Most Reverend Carroll T. Dozier, the first Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Memphis in West Tennessee.
