    Increasing income is a goal of all Community Rebuilders' programs and is necessary for participants to _____________ housing. (fill in the blank with the correct word)

    Correct Answer
    maintain
    Explanation
    Increasing income is a goal of all Community Rebuilders' programs because it is necessary for participants to maintain housing. By increasing their income, individuals are able to afford the costs associated with housing, such as rent, utilities, and maintenance. Without a steady income, it becomes difficult for individuals to sustain their housing situation, leading to potential homelessness or instability. Therefore, maintaining housing requires a sufficient income to cover these expenses.

DHS may provide assistance programs such as SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) or TANF (Temporary Assistance for Needy Families). Social Security offers retirement, disability, and survivor benefits. Veterans Benefits are specifically designed to support veterans and their families with healthcare, education, and housing. By connecting households to these benefits, individuals can receive the necessary support to meet their basic needs and improve their overall well-being.

The Increasing Income Binder provides strategies and resources for generating more income. The Income Tracking Form helps in tracking and analyzing income sources.
