Assistance Programs

          Homeowners resource 
          The Regional Home Ownership Preservation Initiative (HOPI) has launched a terrific new 
          website, www.regionalhopi.org, with stories, research, and data about    efforts to limit
          foreclosure impacts in northeastern Illinois.  The Regional HOPI site also lists relevant events
          and other outreach to homeowners and renters who may be struggling to keep their homes. 
          CMAP is a partner in the initiative's extensive network of non-profits, housing counseling
          agencies, government agencies, private initiatives, and others on the front lines of helping our
          communities and their residents weather these difficult times.
