We were pleased to hear from our friend Sandy Accomando of Apostles’ House about the grand opening of The Stratford which will provide permanent supportive housing for special needs and homeless families. The project will have a total of nine units, three 3 bedroom units and six 2 bedroom units. According to Sandy, The Stratford has received project based SRAP funds. The primary funding sources were Low Income Housing Tax Credits, City of Newark Home funds, HUD Continuum of Care Funding and Federal Home Loan funding. Episcopal Community Development was the developer, for The Apostles’ House, which will “own” and operate the facility. We encourage our readers to attend this important event that will be held on June 6, 2008 between 11 PM and 2 PM at The Stratford, 500-512 Avon Avenue, Newark, NJ. Mayor Cory Booker will officially cut the ribbon at 1 PM. To RSVP call (973) 430-9986. To view the full invitation click here.
