Habitat for Humanity South Sarasota County has opened the application window for its Homeownership Program, giving local individuals and families the opportunity to achieve safe, stable, and affordable housing. Applications will be accepted through August 29.

Staff and volunteers are available to assist with questions and ensure applicants understand the requirements of the process…
