“The Foundation is a trusted partner with deep local knowledge.” “We recognize what the Community Foundation has done in terms of building partnerships, and we appreciate its listening approach to learning about HOME and its future goals,” said Chuck Colston, HOME Board Chair. To ensure it will be able to advance housing equity for years to come, in 2011, HOME established an endowment at the Community Foundation. “We feel strongly that no one should be denied housing based on their protected class.”īy providing families with security deposits, assisting clients with forms needed to stay in their property and partnering with fair housing investigators, HOME remains dedicated to promoting fair opportunities for all current and prospective homeowners today. “We are about advocacy, outreach, education, and the creation of affordable housing opportunities,” said DeAnna Eason, Executive Director of HOME. As a result, Housing Opportunities Made Equal (HOME) was established in 1963 to promote the value of diversity and to ensure that all people have an equal opportunity to live in the housing and communities of their choice. In the early 1960s, discrimination prevented people from purchasing homes in their desired neighborhoods. However, not all houses in all areas have traditionally been available to everyone. The neighborhoods that we live in shape our experiences, opportunities and collective future, and owning a home in our neighborhood of choice can provide us with both a sense of belonging and a feeling of security. Neighborhoods are where the American dream comes to life, where we plant roots and build a better life for our children.
