Building Homeownership in North Lawndale
Description
In Chicago’s North Lawndale, a decades-long fight against housing inequality continues through the Lawndale Christian Development Corporation, born from a 1975 church mission. Rooted in Dr. King’s historic 1966 protest, the group builds affordable homes and requires homebuyer education to empower Black families. Their work has transformed lives—from Kayla Lemon securing stable housing for her kids to Rodniqua Mack achieving her dream of homeownership—proving that community-driven solutions can turn history’s wounds into hope.
