A new episode of Macon It is out now, and this week’s conversation focuses on one of the most important issues facing our community: access to safe, affordable housing.

The latest episode features Natalie Bouyett, Executive Director of the Macon-Bibb County Affordable Housing Fund, who joins the podcast to break down how the fund works and how it’s helping residents take real steps toward homeownership.

During the conversation, Bouyett explains what the Affordable Housing Fund is, why it was created, and how it supports families by helping bridge financial gaps that often stand between renters and owning a home. From assistance that helps with down payments and closing costs to long-term strategies that increase the supply of affordable housing, the fund is designed to make homeownership more attainable for Macon-Bibb residents.
