In a heartwarming yet informative conversation, Janet Michael sits down with Andrea Ross, the executive director of Warren County Habitat for Humanity, to explore the multifaceted impact of the organization on the local community. The conversation delves into the essence of what Habitat for Humanity stands for and the incredible initiatives they undertake to provide affordable housing while creating robust communities. Janet introduces the discussion by shedding light on the myriad of responsibilities that Andrea and her team juggle daily. Andrea explains that while many associate Habitat for Humanity with building homes—as popularized by public figures like Jimmy Carter—the organization's mission extends far beyond that. "We build affordable housing alongside families that are going to get mortgages," Andrea says, emphasizing the importance of economic development, neighborhood stability, and sweat equity contributed by the families themselves. The conversation reveals that Warren County Habitat for Humanity also undertakes critical home repairs to ensure that residents can live safely in their homes. These repairs go beyond cosmetic changes; they include essential upgrades like installing ramps or fixing dangerous electrical issues. "Our goal is to keep people safe in their homes as long as possible," Andrea asserts. Janet and Andrea further discuss the financial realities and misconceptions about Habitat for Humanity. Drea clarifies that the homes built are not free; the families secure mortgages and invest their labor into building these homes, ultimately contributing to community development. "People assume it's for extremely low-income families, but many don't realize that even middle-income families can qualify," she notes, highlighting the pervasive reach of their aid. Warren County Habitat for Humanity is more than just a housing entity; it is a community builder. Janet points out the genius of community-centric projects like the Osage development, which aims to foster a neighborhood where families can grow together, sharing memories and mutual support. Andrea nostalgically recalls the essence of neighborhoods where kids played together and parents looked out for each other, emphasizing that rebuilding these communities can have significant economic and social benefits. To sustain these efforts, Andrea implores the community to get involved in any capacity they can—be it donating $20, sponsoring a family or attending fundraising events like the Canvas and Cocktails event. "Every little bit helps," she passionately states, reflecting on the impact of even the smallest contributions. The conversation concludes on a note of gratitude, acknowledging the support from local entities such as the Rotary Club and community contractors who make all these efforts possible. With numerous events lined up, including the Hope and Harmony Gospel Fest and their annual gala, there are ample opportunities for community members to engage and contribute. For those interested in keeping up with Habitat for Humanity's activities or getting involved, Andrea encourages visits to their website: https://www.warrencountyhabitat.org/ or Facebook where updates and calls for volunteers are frequently posted. "Our parents shouldn't have to be in places where they don't have heat or water or the basic necessities," Andrea poignantly remarks, encapsulating the heartfelt mission of Warren County Habitat for Humanity: to provide not just houses but homes, filled with warmth, safety, and community spirit.

This week on Power House, Diego has the pleasure of being joined by Jonathan Reckford, the CEO of Habitat for Humanity International. Since its founding, Habitat for Humanity has helped over 62 million people in over 1,000 U.S. communities and 71 countries.  Diego and Jonathan dive into Habitat's complex role in both the federal and local level of the US housing market and their work to help the affordability crisis, including their involvement in local zoning campaigns and advocating for federal pro-housing programs. They also talk about their collaboration with banks, builders, and local governments, and why this cooperation is the key to solving the housing crisis. Here's what you'll learn: There is a significant supply gap in the U.S. housing market that needs to be addressed at a larger scale. Nationwide NIMBYism is a challenge to building affordable housing in communities. Collaboration with local governments is essential for effective, boots-on-the-groud housing policy. The housing crisis is a national issue that affects all demographics. Creating more starter homes is crucial for improving access to homeownership. Habitat believes that a mixed-income community benefits everyone.

Homeowners must contribute sweat equity hours to build their own homes. Habitat homes are deed restricted to maintain affordability for future generations. The ReStore sells donated items to fund Habitat for Humanity's building projects. Volunteering with Habitat for Humanity fosters community and personal connections. Habitat for Humanity has evolved from a grassroots effort to a global organization. The organization focuses on serving families earning 30-60% of the area median income.
