In 2015, the MICAH South Chapter met with River Heights Vineyard in Inver Grove Heights to discuss the need for affordable housing. Pastor Pete and Pastor Gay talked about community services and their dream for land they owned next to the church, which they wanted used for affordable housing.

MICAH helped to coordinate a meeting with Dakota County, Dakota CDA, and others to discuss options. The City approved it unanimously! The Dream has become a Reality and opens September 2020.
