MAUC is launching a housing project, the MAUC Housing Center that will initially start on San Antonio’s Westside. MAUC will begin the project on the Westside and then expand to MAUC’s services areas in San Antonio. The MAUC Housing Center will be a laboratory for addressing housing-related needs and opportunities and can serve as a model for the implementation of new, more equitable housing investment strategies.

The MAUC Community Housing Center will educate, empower and link clients to community partners that will increase economic development opportunities, enhance financial empowerment and wealth building for low to moderate income families.

 

Goals of the MAUC Community Housing Center:

Housing is a foundational issue for long-term goals such as increasing economic mobility for families in San Antonio to achieve neighborhood-scale revitalization. The MAUC Housing Center Pilot seeks to measurably strengthen the San Antonio housing market in the following ways:

• Connect low and moderate-income residents to housing resources appropriate to their needs and opportunities.

• Leverage greater investment in housing on San Antonio’s Westside, including a mix of homeownership and rental properties that respect the cultural and historical assets of the Westside.

• Protect vulnerable populations from predatory market activity and prevent involuntary displacement.

MAUC will survey the target audience annually to provide services and educational classes as determined by the family needs. MAUC provides the following services:

  • Parent Engagement. Prepares parents in understanding the school system and how they are able to advocate for their children and guide them through their school years all the way to receive a higher education in a college or university.
  • G.E.D. Classes. The “General Equivalent Diploma” is for adults 18 years of age and older that have not completed high school. This program prepares the student to take the GED “State Assessment” to acquire an alternative diploma to improve employment possibilities.
  • ESL Classes. “English as a Second Language” is a program that supports adult immigrants in learning English to improve their basic language skills and better opportunities for employment.
  • Nutrition Education. Nutrition Education assists parent(s) to understand the connection of good nutrition and physical activity such as exercise to promote good eating habits and family wellness.
  • Art for Adults. Free art classes for adults are offered to promote creativity and learn techniques in art acrylic painting on canvas.
  • Art for Children. Free art classes for children 7-12 years of age are offered to promote creativity, imagination and learn techniques in drawing and painting. Students also work on creative seasonal activities throughout the year.
  • Adult Literacy in Spanish. Centro de Estudios provides the opportunity for immigrant parent(s) from Mexico to continue their education in completing their “Primaria” and “Secundaria “so they may receive a “certificate of completion”. The ultimate goal is to assist (parent)s in entering a “G.E.D.” program that is offered in English or Spanish and to continue the parent(s) education in reading, writing and the ability to speak in English.
