"My dream has come true. Breaking Ground truly gives hope to this community and I am so thankful."
--Carol White, owner of Breaking Ground home in North Lawndale
Gentrification
North Lawndale is among Chicago's inner city communities experiencing major renewal, fueled by gentrification. Since the majority of North Lawndale residents are low-income and rent housing, they face imminent displacement from their neighborhood as new, more expensive developments spread throughout the community.
Homeownership
Our goal is to develop quality homes residents can own at an affordable rate. By becoming homeowners, residents are able to remain in their neighborhood, establish stability for their families, and gain a sense of ownership in their community.
