Wells Fargo provided the Polk County Housing Trust Fund a $75,000 grant for its Stable Steady Strong initiative, which makes grants to local nonprofits that help people and families find safe, affordable housing. This year, 15 local nonprofits are providing services that are partially funded by Stable Steady Strong. For the year ending June 30, nonprofit programs funded through Stable Steady Strong helped 1,787 local households, including 500 families that were homeless before entering the program. According to the National Low Income Housing Coalition, Polk County currently needs an additional 11,635 rental housing units that are both affordable and available to extremely low-income renter households.
