Since 2008, NCRC has been a trusted intermediary for many dedicated housing counseling agencies across the country, with the current network including 25 agencies. NCRC staff work closely with agencies to provide technical assistance and subgrant opportunities as well as facilitate network-building and shared learning opportunities between agencies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;NCRC looks forward to expanding our service as a HUD intermediary to additional agencies across the country,\u201d\u00a0 said NCRC\u2019s Director of Community Impact Laura Bentley. \u201cNow more than ever, we are dedicated to supporting housing counseling agencies in their critical work to build homeownership and generational wealth for their communities and protect families from foreclosures. As a HUD intermediary, we are pleased to provide capacity-boosting resources and funding opportunities to our network agencies that can further amplify their impact.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span
