Jesse Van Tol, CEO of the National Community Reinvestment Coalition, joins Jo Ann for a discussion on the upsides and downsides of technologies designed to expand access to homeownership and small business capital.

NCRC Community Development Fund, a subsidiary of the National Community Reinvestment Coalition, lends primarily to Black, Latino, women, and immigrant entrepreneurs and business owners throughout the country with its mission to help bridge the racial wealth divide by supporting entrepreneurship and affordable homeownership in America's underserved communities.Its new lending platform – for which it is also building an algorithm to determine loan eligibility – stands to make the roughly 10-person operation more efficient, Marisa Calderon, NCRC CDF's executive director, said in a recent interview.This episode of the CRA Podcast addresses the promise of CDFI lending, partnerships with financial institutions to support the continuum of capital for disadvantaged communities, and how the Community Development Fund is also building a new lending platform leveraging AI to not only support efficiencies in their operation but also for others in the CDFI industry.

Under her leadership in her first 18 months at NCRC CDF, they deployed over $17 million in capital to historically underserved Black, Latino, immigrant, and women entrepreneurs through their small business and investment programs, earning them a place on Fast Company's list of 2022 Most Innovative Companies in the World. She is also chief of community finance and mobility at the NCRC CDF's parent company, the National Community Reinvestment Coalition (NCRC), where her work focuses on advancing economic mobility for communities impacted by systemic inequality and disinvestment. Marisa is ranked on the Swanepoel Power 200 as one of the most powerful leaders in the residential real estate industry, and was twice named a HousingWire Woman of Influence in 2018 and 2021 for her work in increasing real estate and mortgage professionals' understanding and appreciation of the Hispanic home-buying market.

Frequently sought out as an expert on affordable housing, lending and immigration, Marisa has been interviewed by numerous publications and media outlets, including NPR's Marketplace and does regular public speaking at industry and general market events, including Mortgage Banker's Association, FDIC, Consumer Federation of America, National Fair Housing Alliance, and many others.

In this episode, we try to answer three key questions asked to us by one of our clients: How do we separate ourselves from other schools in a prospect's Top 3 when they've already visited each campus? How do we not get dropped after just one phone call with a new prospect? How do we better control the timeline for the prospect? We answer those questions, and also talk to author, entrepreneur, former naval submarine officer and 2022 NCRC speaker Jon Rennie about how to motivate and direct a prospect (or your current team) to buy into your ideas and culture.

Average rent in the state is up 15% on average, with more than half the state's renters cost-burdened, according to a recent report. Meanwhile, evictions are creeping back to pre-pandemic levels. Those numbers had dipped because of pandemic-related state and federal relief programs, but most of those resources have lapsed or dried up. This hour, we hear from Connecticut Public housing reporter Camila Vallejo about how vulnerable communities are likely to be hit hardest, and what she learned from one family who was recently evicted in Norwalk. We also hear from the Connecticut Coalition of Property Owners. What are the broader barriers to renting – and buying? We hear about the "inventory crisis" from the Connecticut Association of Realtors; and pan out with Joshua Devine, director of Racial Economic Equity at the National Community Reinvestment Coalition (NCRC). The NCRC found that the homeownership gap between Black and white Americans is currently the widest it's been in 100 years.

“I'm very grateful for the wounds that I have acquired in my life. And I see now how those wounds were openings to something greater.” ~Gregory Koufacos The patriarchy, amiright?! They’re an easy (and rightfully) targeted group. However, there’s an entire generation growing up under the influence of our current system. What are we - therapists and society in general - doing to help them heal from the twin scourges of addiction and toxic masculinity?  Gregory Koufacos MA, LCADC, NCRC, founder and CEO of Velocity Mentoring, is the bright light in the dark tunnel, not at the end of it. He and Sarah discuss his work with emerging men and bond over what addiction therapy practitioners can do to better support this community.  So where do we begin? What can we do to advance the healing? Glad you asked!  Primal Method, Greg’s soon-to-be-published book, addresses those very same questions. “A big part of the process is teaching men that we cannot take what we want, right?” It’s common-sense messaging that’s rarely reinforced within the male population.  “I want to immediately start to work with them and mentor them and move alongside life with them, to lead them and to go on a path of victory.” Light in the tunnel! Special invitation for you!  Sarah is hosting a complimentary online gathering April 1st, 2020 from 7-8pm CST to support those of us feeling anxious, isolated or overwhelmed by current events.

This is the Preach to the Choir podcast where we explore how culture affects the racial wealth divide and vice versa recorded live at Greenhouse Studios with your hosts Deidrick Asante Muhammad Chief of race, wealth, community at NCRC, Pamela Capalad CFP and owner of Brunch and Budget, and Dyalekt Director of Pedagogy at Pockets Change. Pam: Can billionaires save us? Can they save you? We'll find out. We wanted to talk about this in particular because we already talked about the presidential candidates and what their stance was on the racial wealth divide. Now we have Bloomberg and Steyer both on the ticket two billionaires and they are spending a ton of ad money trying to appeal to the black and Latinx community in particular.

Rose Ramirez and Mr. Jesse Van Toll a CEO of the National Community Reinvestment Coalition (NCRC) discuss the racial wealth divide, power imbalances and bridging the gap. Rose: Awesome. So, Jesse could you tell us a little bit about NCRC?Jesse: Sure, the National Community Reinvestment Coalition is a membership organization of more than 600 groups around the country who have an economic justice mission and we fulfill that mission by championing fairness in banking housing and in business. Jesse: The racial wealth gap can be understood in a number of ways. I think that you have historic discrimination, you've ongoing discrimination. I really think about it in terms of power. We have an economic system, capitalism, which produces more wealth than any other system we've ever known but it doesn't distribute it equally. And if you think about the theory of capitalism this notion that Adam Smith had that when two parties engage in a transaction, you know, it's mutually beneficial. Jesse: So when we look at the history of capitalism, we see that power imbalances lead to more power imbalances over time. And so you might think of physical and coercive force as being part of the original power imbalance, but on an ongoing basis, part of what we see today. So thinking about Europeans engaging in the slave trade, right? That was a power imbalance that was physical and coercive. Well it led over time to an accumulation of wealth by slave traders, by people engaging the slave trade, by farmer capitalists in the United States. And that wealth and balanced led to an accumulation of power.Jesse: So we're very focused on this sort of power imbalance that we see wealth inequality is the result of an economic system that many times has been based on coercive power. that this led to wealth accumulation in the hands of the very few and that that in and of itself tends to lead to even more wealth accumulation in the hands of the very few. Both because wealthy people have a lot of political power, they have a lot of economic power. There's a lot of ways in which power gets expressed through our system of economics. I think many people would argue that when you look at rates of incarceration among black people in this country, that that you have sort of a criminalization of poverty that exists to express some physical power in many cases over a certain part of the population and that also impacts people's ability to build wealth, to hold a job, to make an income and in turn to invest in things that might help them secure their wealth assets over time. Jesse: Our theory is that we need significant relationships with a significant number of, in our case our members are community-based organizations around the country. Because we understand that in order to correct things like the racial wealth gap, to work on inequality in this country, it's going to take people making sacrifices. Its going to take people doing hard things to overcome what is an incredibly powerful system of capitalism. Our capitalist economy has produced more wealth than any other system in the history of the world; it just doesn't share it very equally.Rose: What does economic justice mean to you?Jesse: Well economic justice to me is not an act charity. It's not about doing something that makes us feel good. Economic justice is about ensuring that in terms of the systems that we have, the policies that we have, that everybody has an opportunity to provide for themselves and their family. That they don't start life at a disadvantage just because of where they were born, their race, what family they were born into. That people have this kind of opportunity to do well and I don't think we have that kind of system.

In Episode 3, we discusses consumer protection as it relates to housing for our military service members and emotional support animals in housing with Amber Lee, Lending Compliance Program Manager at NCRC. The conversation covers what rights service members have and the discrimination facing this population everyday.Episode Highlights:Amber: Veterans face a lot of additional issues. They may be looking for housing as a disabled person but also it is the first time in our country that veterans are facing an issue of being under housed. They are struggling to find affordable housing. Amber: The CFPB did a survey of service members and they found that generally service members have higher levels of financial well-being. They also found that ⅓ of the service members that they surveyed didn't have more than one month of emergency savings. 23% had no emergency savings at all and nearly 35% of service members are what we call cost burdened. Which means that they are spending more than 30% of their income on housing and fewer than half of them own their own homes.Amber: Veterans today are a lot younger, younger people are tending to rent more than they are buying in general. Veterans and service members today are currently the more diverse in history as far as racial and ethnic makeup. A lot of that might mean that they are being shut out of the housing market because of inter-generational poverty, segregated neighborhoods, the things that everyone faces. Amber: Source of income is different. Some states put it on as you can't discriminate against someone because they are on public assistance. If they can cover the rent, they can cover the rent. It doesn't matter where their income is coming from. Amber: The Military Lending Act doesn't directly relate to housing in that it covers other types of credit. It caps the interest rate at 36%. Whereas civilians can go to payday lenders and often times those loans will be upward to 400%. If you are a service member and you are covered by the Military Lending Act, no one can give you a loan for higher than 36% interest rate. Amber: Service members who fall into cycles of debt, often it causes them to lose their security clearance. Thousands of veterans get booted out of the military service every year because of financial distress.Amber: The Military Lending Act was passed in 2006 after the DOD did a study finding that these predatory lenders were running to the bases to find young, financially distressed kids and suck them into these loans. The CFPB is responsible for enforcing the Military Lending Act. Ideally, they are the ones that should be going out searching for people who are violating these. Amber: The Federal Trade Commission is doing some stuff. They finalized a regulation that requires nationwide consumer reporting agencies to provide free electronic monitoring for service members. It is the Free Electronic Credit Monitoring for Active Duty Military rule. The official rule will go out later this month. It is attached to the Fair Credit Reporting Act. They've also gone after some companies who were trying to allege credit repair schemes. Amber: The Service Member Civil Relief Act protects existing debt while you are on active duty, period. It doesn't matter when it originated. It helps protect service members against foreclosures, termination of their lease, evictions due to failure to pay their monthly rent. It protects against wage garnishment if they can't pay their loans. It also prevents you from having to pay more than 6% interest on your credit obligations that incurred prior to you commencing your military duty service. Amber: File a complaint with the CFPB. They do make it very easy to file a complaint on their website. Rose: You can always contact NCRC we're more than happy to put you in contact with one of our member organizations that does Military Lending Act work and provides resources specific to service members.

Beth McConnell is Policy Director of the Philadelphia Association of Community Development Corporations. PACDC represents more than 100 member organizations, including nearly 50 community development corporations, who work to develop affordable housing, revitalize commercial corridors, and stabilize Philadelphia's neighborhoods. Beth works to advance a policy agenda that helps them do their great work. She leads PACDC’s efforts to advance city, state and federal policies that help CDCs revitalize Philadelphia’s neighborhoods and rebuild communities. The National Community Reinvestment Coalition (NCRC) earlier this year released a research report called Shifting Neighborhoods: Gentrification and Cultural Displacement in American Cities, and Philadelphia has the dubious distinction of being one of the worst cities for black residents being displaced by real estate development. In this interview, Beth tells us about the broad findings of the NCRC’s study and gives us a historical context to understanding gentrification in Philadelphia.

Original Recording Date: June 2018 Guest: George (Village of Arbour Trails) George shared a really powerful perspective with me, of the difficulties transitioning to a retirement residence, losing a life partner and trying to build new relationships. There are so many barriers and challenges our seniors face in this time of transition, and I was really humbled to have George open up about this. More than ever before I am inspired to create more safe and comfortable spaces for seniors to be able to talk about significant and heavy topics with each other. Thank you so much George. I managed to tuck in one quick track of music today, a recording of Shan Culkeen from Trent Radio at our impromptu Open Mic during the NCRC radio conference June of 2018.
