Challenge: To provide independent living facilities for seniors and people with disabilities in Huntington, Indiana, that provide support services and safety mechanisms, and still facilitate privacy and independence.

A team of NeighborWorks America staff, partners and a representative of network member Neighborhood Housing Services of Los Angeles County toured three Los Angeles communities for a day of outreach to inform the public about loan modification and foreclosure prevention scams that can cost unsuspecting homeowners thousands of lost dollars — and in some cases, their homes.

NeighborWorks America is well known for its training of professionals, but training residents at the local level is equally important. At NeighborWorks member Chinatown Community Development Center (CDC), a foundational principal is to develop the leadership potential of the residents it serves.
