Ang aming Pananaliksik
HOME has long been a source of credible housing-related research in the commonwealth. We build partnerships with local and state government, organizations, and with legislative officials to spark meaningful conversations about housing issues, educate the public and raise awareness, and advocate for systemic change in our communities.
Ang diskarte ng HOME sa pagsasaliksik at patakaran sa pabahay ay natatangi dahil nakakakuha tayo ng impormasyon sa labas at panloob. Pinag-aaralan ng aming pangkat ng pananaliksik ang mga uso na lumalabas mula sa aming mga reklamo at pagsisiyasat sa patas na pabahay, mula sa aming mga kliyente sa pagpapayo sa pabahay, at mula sa industriya at lokal na mga pinagmumulan ng data. Ang pananaliksik na ito ay kadalasang nagsisilbing katalista para sa pagbabago sa mga sistema ng pabahay na nagtutulak ng mga pagkakataong pang-ekonomiya, pang-edukasyon, at panlipunan. Ang data na aming nakolekta ay tumutulong sa amin na gumawa ng isang madiskarteng diskarte sa pagtugon sa mga pangunahing isyu sa pabahay.
