TC Hope had been looking for a property for their project and had been struggling to find anything. It bounced around the city council for a while, but until CSET’s executive director Mary Alice Escarsega-Fechner put the group in touch with Self-Help Enterprises, they were at a standstill. Self-Help had a property that was “by-right” to be used for low cost housing or first home operational purposes for those who are transitioning off the street. It was just the partnership TC Hope needed according to Malison.
