		Revitalizing Polytechnic Heights
		When Liberation Community was founded in 1984, vacancy rates in the Polytechnic Heights neighborhood were as high as 40%. Liberation built the first new homes in Poly in twenty years and has been renovating and building affordable homes there ever since. Currently Liberation Community is in the process of developing two contiguous city blocks in the Poly neighborhood with plans for single family, multi-family and retail development.

		"I don’t think we would have been able to move into a house like this one without the help of Liberation Community. We had trouble qualifying for a loan because of our credit problems, but Liberation worked with us to straighten things out and provided us with homebuyer and credit education classes. No one else took the time to do that."
