Homeownership 🏡 is pivotal to achieving the American Dream. In today’s economic climate, many Americans struggle to find and keep affordable housing to own. NACA is working to ensure that the American Dream is still attainable for everyone. From March 13-15th NACA will be at South DeKalb Mall helping renters get qualified for mortgages and helping existing homeowners refinance if needed. - Team Commissioner Ted Terry
