The article highlights the story of Cassandra, a resident of Open Hearts Place (OHP) in Burke County, focusing on the program's mission to provide housing and promote family self-sufficiency. Through a three-year cycle, families receive affordable housing and participate in various programs to become equipped with the knowledge to sustain a house on their own. OHP, headquartered at St. Matthews Church, has already helped several families and is expanding its efforts to address the housing crisis by partnering on a new community of starter homes. The organization also helps families save for down payments and has recently welcomed a new project director/case manager to work closely with participants towards achieving their housing goals.
