Building Dreams: From Homelessness to Homeownership
The Journey from Homeless to Home
Housing counselors through the MSHDA's network of HUD-approved Housing Counseling Agencies is dedicated to helping individuals who are homeless or at risk of losing their homes. They provide guidance and support to find stable housing, explore temporary solutions, and focus on long-term stability. This includes budgeting assistance, evaluating housing affordability reviewing credit reports, and communicating with landlords. In counseling sessions, counselors work closely with clients to navigate housing applications, create personalized spending plans, set achievable goals, and track progress. Our agencies have empowered many Michigan residents to transition from homelessness to homeownership, inspiring hope and building a brighter future for their family.
