Federal Programs
The Obama Administration announced the Making Home Affordable program in February 2009. This program provides resources to homeowners who are making good-faith effort to make their mortgage payments. An overview of this program is available on the federal Road to Stability site. Detailed information and self-assessment tools are available at Making Home Affordable.
