Despite a plethora of obstacles, organizations like Habitat for Humanity are still building and getting creative in order to continue helping people.
Supply chain issues are just one element impacting affordable housing builds with organizations like Habitat for Humanity.
Habitat for Humanity representatives in Lockland, Ohio, say they’ve had to do new things--like store windows, refrigerators and other materials in warehouses--to ensure sure they have the supplies stocked when they are needed. The organization does a lot more in the affordable housing arena than just building new homes. The nonprofit also repairs properties and does rehabilitation construction. Through those efforts, Habitat for Humanity is on track to impact the same number of individuals it did pre-pandemic:Habitat for Humanity International helps people across the globe and advocates for things like zoning changes to allow for more starter and affordable homes.
Goolsby pointed out there was an affordable housing crisis before the pandemic. However, the pandemic forced them to be creative and nimble to figure out how to impact the community more broadly.
