Harwich Rescues Households

A recent article in the Cape Cod Times describes how programs are being created in Harwich, to help families pay their mortgage or rent. These programs were established in response to the rising number of struggling families during this economic recession. They will give money to the Housing Assistance Corp., the Homeless Prevention Program, and town-run rental assistance program. Harwich is one of the few local communities taking such large steps towards assisting those struggling financially, and it is clear in the article that they will continue to make an effort to help all residents in need.
