Since our founding, our mission has always been a world where everyone has a decent place to call home. Although, Black individuals and families still face racial discrimination when pursuing their dream of owning a home. We recognize the gap in home ownership between white and Black families in the United States, and it is our responsibility to continue addressing these inequities through our critical work.
-
In celebration of Juneteenth, we ask that you join us as we continue to learn, educate, and find solutions of how we can better serve our communities and close the racial homeownership gap in the U.S.
