  • Delivering on the Mission
    NEIGHBORWORKS AMERICA: DELIVERING ON THE MISSION ANNUAL REPORT FY 2019 FOR MORE THAN 40 YEARS we have created opportunities for people to live in affordable homes, improve their lives and strengthen their communities. Our mission drives us forward. We continue to grow and evolve, exploring new paths, partnerships and solutions to better equip the communities we serve with the resources they need. A Letter from the Chairman of the Board It is a privilege to serve as the chairman of the NeighborWorks America board of directors. The board is committed to effective governance to ensure that NeighborWorks continues to carry out its vital mission. This is a personal journey for me. My first professional experience in Washington, D.C., was as an aide to my congressman from the Bronx in New York City. The congressman was a very strong supporter of the Urban Reinvestment Task Force, which by an act of Congress in 1978 became the Neighborhood Reinvestment Corporation, later to become NeighborWorks America. Through that experience, I gained an appreciation for the founding vision of NeighborWorks: empowering community residents, collaborating with local financial institutions and government leaders, and working to improve and transform their neighborhoods and quality of life. NeighborWorks’ founding vision is a powerful one. For more than 40 years, NeighborWorks has made a significant impact on neighborhoods and communities throughout the United States, in rural towns and urban centers, and everywhere in between. It’s an extraordinary history of accomplishment. This past year was no exception. Our accomplishments in fiscal year 2019 included: • Counseling and educating more than 166,000 customers; • Growing our network’s rental home stock by 6,785 units to more than 173,000 rental homes owned; and • Assisting more than 22,000 first-time homebuyers (mostly low to moderate income), thereby creating opportunity for families that not long ago believed the American dream was out of reach for them.

  • FCC Should Evaluate the Efficiency and Effectiveness of the Lifeline Program
    United States Government Accountability Office T estimony Before the Subcommittee on Communications, Technology, Innovation and the Internet, Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation, U.S. S enate For Release on Delivery Expected at 9:30 a.m. ET Tuesday, June 2, 2015 TELECOMMUNICATIONS FCC Should Evaluate the Efficiency and Effectiveness of the Lifeline Program Statement of Michael Clements, Acting Director Physical Infrastructure Issues ACCESSIBLE VERSION GAO-15-638T Letter Letter Chairman Wicker, Ranking Member Schatz, and Members of the Subcommittee: I am pleased to be here today as you discuss the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) efforts to promote telephone subscribership among low-income households. Through the Lifeline program, companies provide discounts to eligible low-income households for telephone service. The Lifeline program supports these companies through the Universal Service Fund, which is funded through mandatory fees that are usually passed along to consumers through a charge applied to their monthly telephone bills. The Lifeline program was created in the mid-1980s and has traditionally centered on wireline residential telephone service. However, FCC actions in 2005 and 2008 paved the way for prepaid wireless companies to begin offering Lifeline service in 2008; at the time, FCC did not quantify or estimate the potential increases in participation from its decision. Subsequently, Lifeline experienced rapid growth in participation and disbursements. In particular, from mid-2008 to mid-2012, Lifeline
