Built from the ground up to serve the communities most impacted by foreclosure — with the governance, accountability, and cultural competency that sustained impact requires.
Maryland's housing crisis is not a distant threat — it is an active, daily reality for thousands of families across the state.
Rising mortgage costs, post-pandemic forbearance exits, surging property taxes, and the persistent predatory lending ecosystem have created conditions in which a single financial setback can put a family's home — and their generational wealth — at serious risk.
These challenges fall disproportionately on Black and Brown communities, seniors on fixed incomes, low-income households, and first-time homeowners. Existing resources are often difficult to navigate, inaccessible to non-English speakers, or disconnected from the communities that need them most.
House Hold Maryland was built to fill that gap — providing early intervention, trusted guidance, and sustained case management that keeps families in their homes and their communities intact. All services are free of charge, regardless of income, language, or immigration status.
House Hold Maryland is led by Toure' Antonio Nelson and governed by a board of six members bringing expertise in public service, community development, nonprofit leadership, and operations.
