THE POWER OF ADVOCACY

The U.S. Senate has proposed a whopping 93% cut to the HOME program. Such a severe cut in funding would mean the end of a program that is helping Habitat affiliates across the country reach partner families most in need of support. We're asking Habitat supporters across the country to join us in saving HOME.

 

HOME is the short name for a federal program called the HOME Investment Partnerships Program. HOME funds are spent on new construction, infrastructure improvements, repairs, and rehabilitation or reconstruction of owner-occupied housing. Overall, HOME has created more than 1.1 million affordable homes in the United States. Every $1 million in HOME funds creates or preserves approximately 18 jobs.

 

Please use your voice today by sending a message to your federal lawmakers, then encourage your friends and family to do the same. We need advocates like you to help Congress understand the importance of HOME.
