The Ford Foundation has awarded the UNC Center for Community Capital (CCC) $2 million to continue its long-term study of lower-income homeownership before, during and after one of the worst economic crises in the nation’s history.
The center has presented findings and policy recommendations from this study widely to policymakers, regulators, industry groups, academics and others interested in expanding homeownership opportunities. One book (Regaining the Dream: How to Renew the Promise of Homeownership for America’s Working Families, Brookings Institution Press, 2011) and scores of research papers have been published based on this research.

The Center for Community Capital is an affiliate of the Center for Urban and Regional Studies.
