Story of Impact from Minnesota’s Housing Scorecard, Feb. 2020:
Housing Goal Four – Increase Home Stability
Homework Starts with Home, a state-wide initiative that grew out of efforts in rural Northwest Minnesota, brought together multiple state agencies and philanthropies to provide stable housing for at least 200 families and 400 school-age children. Using this program, Clay County Housing and Redevelopment Authority is on its way to providing rental assistance, case management, and other housing services to 60 families in the region. This program is proven to increase student attendance and to increase parent incomes. Watch the video about the Homework Starts with Home program.
