In this week’s episode, we’re joined by Jonathan Reckford, CEO of Habitat for Humanity, the global housing nonprofit that has helped more than 62 million people build, rehabilitate, or preserve their homes. Under Reckford’s leadership, the organization has grown dramatically expanding from serving about 125,000 people each year to reaching more than 3 million annually.
Reckford sits down with NHC President and CEO David Dworkin to reflect on Habitat’s 50-year impact and how it’s addressing today’s housing affordability crisis. They discuss key policy priorities, bipartisan legislation, and the proposed Homeownership Supply Accelerator, exploring what it will take to boost starter home supply, expand access to homeownership, and drive meaningful change through advocacy.
