Affordable Housing
In 2018, Depaul USA purchased and rehabbed an abandoned house on Heather Lane. The house is fully remodeled and home to an employed gentleman who pays 30% of his adjusted monthly income in rent.
Last year, Depaul USA broke ground on the construction of a duplex on South State Street. This new development, designed by a local architect, has added two more affordable units to Little Rock’s housing inventory.
Settled Souls
Settled Souls, a local non-profit, provides free furnishings to each person housed out of Jericho Way. They provide furniture, household goods, and a food starter kit.
