I come from a small rural town nestled in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. My hometown is split down the middle by a set of railroad tracks. On the north side, one can find pristine neighborhoods, newer schools, most doctors’ offices, and the only hospital in town. The south side of the town stands as a stark contrast. On the south side, you no longer find the wealthy neighborhoods but rather dilapidated and condemned homes and housing projects. One seems to find abandoned buildings on every corner, many inhabited by those that have lost their homes. Limited help is coming for those who need it, mostly through churches and volunteer programs targeting the underserved. Many doctors, dentists, and nurses are giving their time and resources to help

The overview of these three programs and attaining them is optimal, essentially a cycle of opportunity. By providing these services it develops a base for a long-term goal of achieving self-sufficiency and out of poverty. However, the accessibility of these beneficial resources may be difficult to obtain based on eligibility. New ideas that may help improve or reduce disparities in future programs can begin by concentrating on and expanding educational resources. For instance, a program that holds educational sessions on a monthly base, targeting communities, informing families of available resources and assisting with the application process. Another idea would be collaborating with the school system, specifically low-income based communities. After school program can be initiated to target parents that need assistance with extra resources and services. Lastly, innovating a classroom setting program for the duration of one-year, furthering educational and leadership ability for

In HUD literature, the terms Section 236 preservation and recapitalization are used concomitantly and interchangeably. The ambiguity that this synonymous usage creates is reflected in the vagueness of exactly what Section 236 preservation/recapitalization entails. This is further borne out by the fact that local housing offices and experts are not at all familiar with the program. Although Section 236 recapitalization initially appears to be a new program designed to re-fund multifamily housing units with Section 236 loans, it is in fact an effort by HUD to help wean property owners and program beneficiaries off IRPs and mortgage insurance.

Every program is different in their approach to meeting the needs of the individuals that
