HOME OWNERSHIP WITH BWBB

Our program is an innovative home ownership initiative that works with Black women to rehabilitate vacant and deteriorated homes. Our holistic program integrates knowledge, skill, and opportunity.

CREATING COMMUNITY

Our goal is to help Black women create thriving communities. Our hope is that the rehabilitation of these West Baltimore homes, and their first-time Black women homeowners, is a spark that can inspire change, build lasting connections between community members, and be a catalyst for positive growth.

BUILDING SKILLS & KNOWLEDGE

North Station Tool LibraryThe power of knowledge and skills is life changing. We want Black women to be able to take care of their home and not be intimidated by what’s behind the walls. 

FINANCIAL EDUCATION

Financial education and training create a foundation of knowledge that can help participants leverage their assets.



Participants in our program earn a Home Ownership Counseling certificate from a city-approved counseling agency at start of each build. We compliment this education with weekly workshops during the build that cater to specific needs of the individual cohorts.
