This story from Humans of HUD is what keeps us going... "After the loss of my son to gun violence, I went through a very dark period. I needed to feel complete and decided to go back to college. I enrolled in the Family Self-Sufficiency program. The program helped me turn my dreams into goals. I have the ability to earn and build savings through the escrow account -- it gives me incentive to work harder. Thirty-four years after dropping out of college, I'm proud to say I earned my Bachelor's degree and graduated Magna Cum Laude. Currently, I'm pursuing a double Master's in Christian Care and Divinity. It's never too late to beat the odds and accomplish your dreams!" #HUD #humansofhud #publichousingagencies #governmenthousing #affordablehousing

"That is why we come to work everyday, for people like that" --Leah Eppinger, AICP Housing provides families with stability, security, and a sense of belonging. It’s more than just a place to live—it’s the foundation for opportunities like better education, healthier lives, and financial independence. Safe and affordable housing allows families to focus on growth rather than survival, giving children a stable environment to thrive and parents the peace of mind to build a future.
