Building communities of opportunity
Opportunity Communities drives better results by unlocking the potential of our members to create equitable communities.
Confronting housing discrimination
Homeownership is the way that most US families build economic security and create intergenerational wealth, yet racial discrimination has severely limited options for people of color. Public policies and private actions have contributed to stark racial inequality in homeownership and wealth. Our Homes for Equity initiative seeks to correct that imbalance.
FEAHD supports greater diversity in the field of affordable housing development
The first Fellowship cohort is underway! Fellows are serving at CDCs across Massachusetts, and each month they get together at a different host CDC for a peer site visit. Research by NeighborWorks America shows that the more cohesive a cohort is, the greater their success, and we’re thrilled to say that these incredible women are on their way!
