Communities and Banking, 2000, issue Win, 18-21

Abstract: Low- and moderate-income (LMI) homeowners in New England often find it difficult to repair their homes due to the high cost of building materials. Kathleen Gill highlights how the emerging building materials cooperatives work to offer LMI homeowners discounted building materials, appliances, and supplies, while also keeping unwanted construction products from clogging up landfills.
