Secretary Carson’s EnVision Centers initiative aims to help households receiving assistance from the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) achieve self-sufficiency, enabling them to leave assistance and become homeowners or renters in the private market so HUD can use its resources to help other low-income households. EnVision Centers reflect the “notion that financial support alone is insufficient to solve the problem of poverty” and that it will take a collective partnership to “implement a holistic approach to foster long-lasting self-sufficiency.” We offer nine recommendations drawn from the evidence on past efforts by HUD that the EnVision Centers could apply to help assisted households move toward self-sufficiency and attain financial stability.
