MERCER COUNTY HOUSING INITIATIVE

The Mercer County Housing Initiative was launched by MCBT in Q3 2021 and involves partner agencies from health care to law enforcement, housing providers to social services. The overall mission of this task force is to provide emergency housing, transitional housing and affordable housing for Mercer County residents to help the community thrive and low-income families to increase their potential long-term.
