Affordable housing in Lee County and Hendry County is a growing need. However, funding for the Sadowski Housing Trust Fund remains in question in the state legislature, it hasn’t been fully funded since the recession that occured in 2008. On top of that, it’s possible this part of the state might not receive anything from that trust fund next year.

 

Kitty Green is the president and CEO of Habitat for Humanity for Lee and Hendry Counties, and she joins us in the studio to inform us on the future of affordable housing in this region.
