Community Renewal Team program addresses purchasing a home

The Community Renewal Team in conjunction with the Office of Neighborhoods and Families will host a free program on for residents considering purchasing their first home. CRT's Individual Development Account matches a participant's own savings with $2 for every $1 deposited, up to $3,000.
On June 22 at 6:30 p.m., CRT will provide an information session to explain the matched savings accounts and other programs for first-time homebuyers. The meeting will be at the new East Side Public Safety Youth Center (the old Spruce Street Firehouse) at 153 Spruce St., Manchester. Parking is available across the street at Nathan Hale School. Light refreshments will be served. For more information about this meeting, or the IDA matched savings program, call Nancy Pappas, CRT director of external relations at 860-560-5149.
