HOUSING PROGRAMS

Housing is the foundation for personal, educational, career/employment and financial goal attainment.  When our neighbors have stable, safe and adequate housing, our entire community benefits.  Community Response is committed to creating opportunities to stabilize communities through rehabilitating vacant and abandoned properties, building new construction in distressed neighborhoods, empowering residents to become homeowners, and providing supported housing for our neighbors that require our help.   Community Response is a Saint Louis County CHDO (Community Housing Development Organization), and a National Community Stabilization Trust nonprofit partner.
