About me
Candice is the Director of Homeownership for Maggie Walker Community Land Trust. In her current role, she works with prospective homeowners in attaining their dream of homeownership. She is also a social worker and therapist having extensive experience with families experiencing low and moderate incomes and housing instability. Her work has primarily focused on identifying and illuminating the ways in which systemic issues often serve as barriers in community members meeting their personal goals surrounding homeownership, wellness, and socio-and economic security. In addition to the civilian population, Candice has assisted and housed veterans experiencing homelessness, PTSD, and other co-morbidities. Understanding the financial roadblocks, trauma, and unseen fear that often surrounds homeownership in BIPOC communities, Candice’s passion is to help communities and community members create legacy and build stability. By utilizing a holistic approach to affordable housing, Candice works with prospective buyers and partners to create an alternate path to homeownership through the community land trust model.
