Harvard’s Joint Center for Housing Studies has released their 2025 State of the Nation’s Housing report, co-sponsored by Habitat for Humanity. The report paints a troubling picture for homeownership as well as record cost burdens for renters. See five key takeaways from the report.
Leading U.S. housing policy expert Dr. Richard Rothstein explains the Fair Housing Act, its context, and the consequences of barriers to equal and affordable housing.
Families across the United States are paying too high a price to cover the cost of home. Rents and homeownership costs are skyrocketing while wages are not keeping pace. Everyone should have enough money left over after paying rent or mortgage costs to cover life’s necessities.
Low-income families are bearing the greatest brunt of the impact of climate change. At Habitat, we partner with financial institutions from around the world to provide the products and services that families need to build a stronger home for themselves.
Did you know that in addition building houses, Habitat for Humanity is advocating to change systems and policies to ensure U.S. families have access to decent, affordable homes?
A decent, affordable house can have a significant impact on a family’s health.
A family’s living conditions can play a significant role in a child’s educational opportunities and achievements.
We believe in a world where everyone — no matter who we are or where we come from — deserves a decent place to live. Habitat’s leaders have committed to creating a space where people of all races, all faiths and all backgrounds come together in common cause.
