Project Equity

A Workshop on Empowering Vulnerable Homeowners on Preventing Foreclosure and Sustaining Homeownership

We strive to lower home foreclosure rates in the city through a mission that combines proactive intervention, community engagement, and the promotion of financial literacy, aiming to create a secure and flourishing housing landscape for all residents.

We are dedicated to reducing home foreclosure rates within the city by employing a multifaceted approach that includes proactive intervention, community engagement, promoting financial wellness, and fostering a supportive ecosystem for homeowners encountering difficulties.

We believe empowering homeowners enhances the overall stability of our community.

• Non-white homeowners are at disproportionate risk of losing their homes over unpaid property taxes

• Minority communities face higher rates of predatory lending practices, leading to increased financial vulnerability.

• People of color often have limited access to affordable housing options, exacerbating housing insecurity.

• Discriminatory housing policies and practices have historically and persistently contribute to racial disparities in homeownership and wealth accumulation.
