Sabree credits a number of programs and payment plans, in addition to nonprofits and community organizations for reducing foreclosures.

“It takes many partners to address this issue, and we are grateful for their support. Without them, this work would be overwhelming,” Sabree said. “The tools and support we have help us save homes, which saves neighborhoods.”
