Affordable homeownership isn’t just a housing issue. It’s a community issue.

In Rhode Island, partnerships between credit unions, state leaders, and community organizations are helping first-time buyers overcome rising rates, PMI costs, and affordability challenges through the RI AnchorHome program.
