Self Help Housing helps low-income individuals and families become home owners. The Self Help Idea
Junction City Mutual Self Help Housing has helped 35 families reach that goal. Participating families work together to build each home, learning the value of teamwork and promoting self-esteem. The result is "sweat equity" that provides the down payment. These groups share the goal of home ownership and commit themselves to working cooperatively to make that goal a reality for all of them. The Self Help idea works because people want to make better lives for themselves and their families. Given the opportunity, they will do everything they can to make the dream of owning a home come true.
It's all about pride and having a place to call home. Junction City Mutual Self Help Housing is funded by a grant to the City of Junction City from USDA Rural Development. For

Self Help Housing
Home—it
is the center of our lives. A place to call your own is what most
of us wish for and work toward but for many it is just a dream.
The
Self Help idea builds more than just homes--its build friends and
communities. And it revitalizes neighborhoods, establishes credit,
and builds new skills and confidence.
