Jacqueline Waggoner will join the affordable housing organization Century Housing as its President & Chief Executive Officer, effective March 23, 2026. A nationally respected, mission-driven leader, Waggoner brings more than 25 years of experience in turning policy into action and capital into community – at scale, across geographies, and with measurable results.
“I am honored to join the dedicated, expert team at Century Housing, an organization that has long been a quiet force in advancing affordable housing across California,” said Waggoner.
Century Housing is a Culver City based private, nonprofit lender to developers building affordable housing targeting low- and moderate-income wage earners. For more than 30 years, the organization has financed, developed, and managed high-quality affordable and supportive housing.
Century’s most recent development, Red Tail Crossing in Westchester, was a partnership with Santa Monica Community Corp., offering 100 affordable and supportive homes for low-income families and individuals, financed by Century Housing.
Most recently, Waggoner was President of the Solutions Division at Enterprise Community Partners, where she oversaw a far-reaching portfolio of housing, capital, and policy initiatives across the country and helped mobilize more than $1 billion in impact investments and grants for community-informed solutions nationwide. Before that, she led Enterprise’s Southern California market – one of the most complex housing environments in the country – building programs that meaningfully expanded affordable housing access across the region.
Century Housing has invested more than $3.5 billion to create and preserve more than 63,000 homes across California, expanding housing stability for thousands of residents.
