Our view: Tackling homelessness in McHenry County

There’s no place like home.

It’s a phrase about 40 women and children will embody next month as they move from homeless shelters into permanent housing.

In September, Home of the Sparrow, a transitional housing service for low-income women and children, partnered with the Housing Opportunity Development Corp. to renovate and build affordable, low-rent homes. Three duplexes were built, one three-unit home was restored in Woodstock, and one two-unit home was renovated in Fox River Grove.
