Owning a home has long been a part of the American dream. This paper will review the many reasons for that, including wealth building, stability, and other household, individual, and community benefits, and how and why philanthropy should play a prominent role in increasing homeownership rates among U.S. households, expecially those with children. Although not for everyone, the benefits of homeownership are significant enough that owning a home should be attainable for everyone who seeks it. Unfortunately, for many households in the U.S., owning a home is simply not an option, either because of its prohibitive initial cost, limited availability, or long-standing systemic discrimination. Owning a home is viewed as an investment in well-being because of the stability and security it provides, both financially and physically. Homeowners in the U.S. hold more wealth than households who rent. For most homeowners, equity in their home is their largest financial asset. Beyond financial security, homeownership provides many additional tangible benefits for both the homeowner and children of homeowners experience better health outcomes. Children of homeowners also do better in school. Research also shows that communities with higher levels of homeownership have lower crime and higher civic engagement. The purpose of philanthropy is to pursue and invest in a more just society where individuals, families, and communities can thrive. Homeownership can play a key role in creating a more equitable world and working to make it affordable is a noble and impactful opportunity for philanthropy. Furthermore, the current housing market has priced out most low- and moderate-incomve households, which is where philanthropy is uniquely positioned to help remedy this situation.

The growth of philanthropic foundations in numbers and significance raises two immediate questions. First, what makes for success and failure of foundations’ projects and activities? Second, what yardsticks or benchmarks are used to measure performance and track goal attainment? The purpose of this book is to delve deeper into the complex set of issues that lie behind the performance and wider impact of philanthropy. Performance Measurement in Philanthropic Foundations looks at the strengths and weaknesses of philanthropic foundations, which are independent of both the market and ballot box and yet open to signal and incentive deficiencies. The authors use in-depth case studies from different countries to illustrate the problems and challenge much of the conventional wisdom on foundation "success" and "failure." The book also outlines the main contours of a proactive governance and management style to address those problems.

Students experiencing homelessness often face overwhelming obstacles that limit both their access to education and their prospects for success in life. The McKinney-Vento Act (1987) was created to ensure that schools provide services that support students in unstable housing situations but, unfortunately, effective implementation of important provisions continues to be elusive. In addition, adults charged with McKinney-Vento implementation in schools voice frustration with overload and lack of support or consistent resources. Through interviews with youth experiencing homelessness, Aviles de Bradley introduces readers to their remarkable resilience under fire and their determination to thrive despite the systemic inequities they encounter daily. The book also explores how poor people of color experience and interface with social institutions, namely schools, and uncovers important connections between homelessness and racism using a Critical Race Theory framework. Readers are challenged to see McKinney-Vento implementation not as charity, but as an issue of legislated social justice and to work towards educational equity for students experiencing homelessness. Book Features: Portrays how students and schooling are affected by homelessness.Shows how homelessness interacts with and impacts teaching and learning.Brings to life the personal stories and struggles of homeless youth.Examines school practices in light of existing federal law.Includes the voices of school personnel charged with supporting homeless students. “Ann M. Aviles de Bradley... draws on an intersectional framework to carefully examine the polices and practices that shape outcomes for homeless youth in large urban centers such as Chicago. Her carefully contextualized examinations of the racialized experiences of homeless youth of color brings a searing poignancy and richness to the work which sets it apart all the others. This book will completely transform the way we think about how to address the needs of homeless youth in our schools.” —Marvin Lynn, Dean and Professor, School of Education, Indiana University South Bend “Dr. Aviles de Bradley succinctly captures a conversation many in the United States are afraid to engage in: the relationship between race and homelessness. Her research contributes to the larger project of justice in education by challenging conventional notions of educational policy formation and implementation with dexterity and care. Moving us away from charity and toward equity is a bold and necessary move in any grounded struggle toward transformative education.” —David Stovall, Educational Policy Studies and African-American Studies, University of Illinois at Chicago
