Title

South Providence 235 Housing CURE

Description

 

Housing in South Providence built under the Section 235 Housing Act of 1968.  While 235 housing allowed families to buy a home through subsidized mortgages, it has also been criticized for effectively segregating the population, putting white families in new developments, and placing African American applicants  in “existing” developments.
