All efforts in the fiscal year were dedicated to program design feasibility analysis and market research to ensure a responsible and scalable launch.

It addresses key barriers faced by low-income young adults in building housing wealth: insufficient income lack of credit history and challenges in accumulating down payment capital. The specific methodology guiding this pathway is proprietary and still in development. The programs core goal is to align housing stability workforce advancement and financial readiness in a tailored model for young adults exiting systems of care or instability. During the fiscal year Transcendent Assistance focused on targeted housing market research and feasibility analysis in its service area. This included evaluating land availability affordability acquisition pathways and development feasibility to pinpoint suitable locations and housing types for transitional rental housing and future homeownership opportunities for OWN IT participants. This research highlighted the significant unmet needs among the target population and the potential success of a development-focused strategy that integrates rental-to-ownership pathways. These initial investments provide the foundation and strategic direction necessary for Transcendent Assistance to move forward with the program launch secure funding and implement OWN IT as an innovative solution to youth homelessness housing instability and generational wealth exclusion.
