Governor Pritzker’s administration is relaunching a home ownership program designed to help working class families and underrepresented communities of color in Illinois. The Opening Doors program is designed to aid lower-income borrowers and households of color with six-thousand-dollars in forgivable assistance for down payment and/or closing costs. This program is expected to assist more than 16-hundred homebuyers.
