We had the opportunity to join Ilona Carson at KHOU 11 today, where our CEO William Merrick and Director of Supportive Services La’Shundria Small spoke about homeownership and creating more pathways for families in our community. 🏡

We’re grateful for the opportunity to share the work we’re doing and the impact we’re continuing to make throughout Houston.

Thank you to KHOU 11 News Houston and Ilona Carson for having us!
