Peter Kaye speaks with Dr. Howard Slaughter, JR. of Habitat for Humanity of Greater Pittsburgh about the challenges to affordable homeownership in Allegheny County and the ways in which Habitat helps make the dream of home ownership a reality. Slaughter emphasizes the importance of owning a home not only providing stability in the present but generational wealth in the future. He takes us on a Habitat build site and shares stories of comradery and impact as volunteers from all walks of life come together and work towards a common goal. Slaughter delves into financial literacy and how the lack of it often keeps individuals from realizing their dream of home ownership.
