The State College Community Land Trust (SCCLT) is a private non-profit organization whose goal is to ensure decent, affordable housing for all through expanding home ownership opportunities. Individuals and families looking for assistance from the SCCLT must be income qualified.
Temporary Housing Foundation (THF) is a private nonprofit organization founded in 1988. THF is dedicated to a mission of providing affordable housing options to Centre County families. As a Community Housing Partnership member, THF is able to assist qualified families with necessary renovations, a "gap" financing subsidy as well as down payment and closing costs. This means a family can buy more house with a lower monthly payment. THF will work with buyers before, during, and after the purchase of a home to help as a partner in their success. Qualifying home buyers are offered free home buyer education and budget counseling to help them every step of the way.
