The National Housing Resource Center (NHRC) is an advocate for the nonprofit housing counseling industry, as well as for housing consumers, for communities of color, for the elderly, and for underserved populations.
Housing counselors are on the frontlines of the American housing crisis, facing the flood of foreclosures, the difficulty homebuyers experience in qualifying for affordable mortgage credit, the housing challenges facing communities of color, the needs of ex-homeowners entering the rental market, and the many scam artists working the housing field.
NHRC is mobilizing housing counselors and agencies into one united voice. There is a need to tap into counselor’s experience, elevate their issues and voices, and unite them into a national advocacy program for their work and their clients. The nonprofit housing counseling industry is an important part of the housing market and, when properly mobilized, can help address the challenges in mortgage, foreclosure, and rental situations.
National Housing Resource Center is a project of Tides Center, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and the nation’s largest fiscal sponsor.
