HOUSING INSECURITY: A MAJOR CONCERN FOR COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND LEADS TO IMMENSE FAMILY INSTABILITY. VAST NUMBERS OF VACANT HOMES AND BUSINESSES DETERIORATE THE FABRIC OF A COMMUNITY BY INCREASED CRIME RATES, HIGHER COSTS TO THE TENANTS GIVEN NO OTHER OPPORTUNITY FOR RESIDENCE, AND MAKING IT DIFFICULT FOR BUSINESSES TO BE SUCCESSFUL. FALSE NARRATIVES RELATED TO THE HOUSING INSECURE ABOUND THAT LIMIT MANY ORGANIZATIONS ABILITY TO PROVIDE SERVICES. THEREFORE, WE WORK TO IDENTIFY AND SUPPORT EMERGING INTERVENTIONS THAT HELP MORE COMMUNITIES AND PEOPLE THRIVE. FROM REDEVELOPMENT OF VACANT PROPERTIES TO TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS THAT INCREASE FINANCIAL MOBILITY, WE WORK TO SEE MORE PEOPLE IN MORE PLACES HAVE THE RESOURCES TO NOT ONLY SURVIVE, BUT TRULY THRIVE. WE ALSO WORK TO CHANGE THE NARRATIVE OF HOMELESSNESS THAT HOPEFULLY LEADS TO EMPATHY AND ACTION.
