Nonprofit organizations provide valuable counseling and education to help potential homebuyers overcome the common barriers to homeownership. They do this at little or no cost. The AHCC was formed to support these organizations because their expertise can prepare buyers to make the best possible investment for themselves and their families. Quarterly AHCC meetings bring training and networking opportunities to these housing professionals. Our mission To improve the quality, scope, and availability of homeownership education and counseling through a statewide comprehensive program which will enhance the success of homebuyers in achieving and sustaining homeownership. Our objectives To adopt and implement a statewide accreditation and certification program with all housing industry partners. To develop a network and clearinghouse for homebuyer education providers to share information on techniques and partnerships, and to participate in ongoing training opportunities. To determine data to be tracked for individuals who receive counseling. Supported and funded by the Fannie Mae Foundation and the Fannie Mae Arizona Partnership Office since its inception in 1998, the AHCC is comprised of nonprofit homeownership education and counseling organizations, HUD, the Governor's Office of Housing, USDA and other government agencies, and for-profit lending, real estate and title company partners.
