Join me in breaking down the gendered AND racial barriers to homeownership in support of @habitatchicago’s #CHIWomenBuild : https://my.habitatchicago.org/WomenBuild2023/alexandraschabel

Women have a harder time accessing homeownership because of lower income, uneven care responsibilities, and mortgage denials and rates. Due to historical racist housing policies (like redlining, predatory lending, racial covenants, and more) and the stark wealth gap between Black and white Americans, Black women have an especially harder time becoming homeowners.

This October, I'm grabbing my hammer and joining Habitat Chicago's Women Build alongside 600 determined women to knock these barriers down and build up something great. Together, we will help our fellow women become homeowners with Habitat Chicago, a nonprofit committed to championing healthy neighborhoods by investing in resident priorities, building quality homes, and supporting homeownership.


Change happens one person at a time. I appreciate any support you can give - big, small, or somewhere in between.
Thank you!
