“Everyone needs a place to call home, and affordable housing can renew neighborhoods and grow the economy. Rehabilitating existing homes and increasing access to affordable housing, especially for our veterans, people with disabilities, and low-income families and individuals will improve quality of life opportunities. Homeownership especially is important to revitalization. It’s great news for our region,” said Senator Catharine Young.
