'23 Homeownership Education and Counseling Summer Associate
 
 
 
The Homeownership Education and Counseling Summer Associate will be hosted by Family Housing Resources (FHR) located in Tucson, Arizona. FHR is a part of the Housing Action AmeriCorps Network, an AmeriCorps VISTA program managed by Housing Action Illinois since 2010. The Homeownership Education and Counseling Summer Associate is part of the Housing Counseling Corps and will receive customized training, support, guidance, networking, and post-service employment opportunities in the housing counseling field. Learn more about the program on Housing Action’s website: housingactionil.org/americorps. Homeownership is the best way for people to achieve generational wealth. Family Housing Resources (FHR) has been serving greater Tucson and Benson, Arizona for the past 30 years working on increasing access to affordable housing and expanding the ability of people to build long term wealth through homeownership. We envision a community with equal access to quality, affordable housing, and pathways to increased wealth and financial freedom. In 2022, we helped 19 families access $588,000 in Down Payment Assistance (DPA). Our clients were 53% Hispanic, 13% Black, and 6% multi-racial. We serve 60% women. In total we served 320 people through our home buyer education, pre-purchase counseling and DPA programs. The Homeownership Education and Counseling Summer Associate will learn, evaluate, and develop educational opportunities and counseling for FHR’s homeownership program to increase our capacity to recruit and serve low-income homebuyers who have been historically discriminated against in the home purchase process. They will also gain a comprehensive understanding of housing counseling.
