Project Description
Change the way vouchers are administered for young people, 18-24, and living on a state funded voucher through the Financial Literacy & Equity Exchange project, an initiative to match the 30% AMI rent payment required by state funded vouchers from employed tenants. We are advocating for the state to fully fund the supportive housing voucher for employed young adults 18-24 years of age, allowing what would be the rent payment, to be redirected into a restricted investment account.
