Happy holidays! Many of our team members will be away from work between December 23, 2024 and January 1, 2025. We will resume normal hours on January 2, 2025.
Movin’ Out does not provide emergency shelter, rapid rehousing, or other emergency services. For assistance, please call 211. Rental residents, please contact property management with any concerns.
Access to safe, quality, affordable housing, and the support needed to stay there for many years, are among the most important economic and social conditions that affect health outcomes.
Since 1995, Movin’ Out has worked to improve housing access and support, helping to build healthier, more resilient communities.
We work with people across the state of Wisconsin who meet income, disability, or veteran eligibility criteria to find homes that meet their preferences and needs—safe, affordable homes that are part of ordinary neighborhoods.
With assistance and resources from Movin’ Out, people with disabilities, veterans, and others can purchase or rent affordable, accessible homes of all types that form the foundation for success in other areas of life.
What we do
When housing works well, other aspects of life are better too. Movin’ Out works with individuals and families to achieve long-term housing success. We bring people and housing solutions together in ways that help create inclusive communities. And we approach all of our work with attention to the ecological, social, and economic impacts of what we do.
We offer information, advice, referrals, and resources for home ownership, home repair for safety and accessibility, or rental housing for households with low to moderate incomes. We primarily serve income-qualified households that include a person who has a permanent disability of any kind, whether intellectual, physical, or mental health. Movin’ Out also develops new multi-family housing with most units affordable for low to moderate income households.

Introducing Movin’ Out Homebuyer Education
The first ever online, self-paced course designed to meet the needs of low-income first time homebuyers in Wisconsin who are people with disabilities.
The Andre’ Apartments: Inspired Innovation for Inclusive Living
Among Movin’ Out’s newest developments, the André Apartments in Madison, Wisconsin, include affordable and market rate units, ranging from one to three bedrooms, and include supportive units for people with disabilities.
The André is named in honor of community leader, André Brown, who passed away in 2022. André was a key inspiration for the creation of Movin’ Out, and positively impacted the lives of many thousands of people served by the organization.
On the ground floor is the Red Caboose Child Care Center’s new 21,000 square foot space. André Brown was a student at Red Caboose as a toddler, becoming one of the first children with significant disabilities to enroll and successfully participate in the program.
