Abstract:

The importance of homeownership is deeply embedded in our society. Public officials herald the virtues of homeownership and have developed policies to increase homeownership for low- and moderate-income households. As a result, there are many publicly-sponsored homeownership programs operating in communities throughout the country, including North Carolina.

Abstract:

The current array of housing and social services has not effectively assisted poor families in attaining self-sufficiency. This article argues the goal of housing and social programs should be to help individuals and families achieve self-sufficiency, and outlines several programs and steps to this end.
