Congratulations to Sarah McLean, manager of First Baptist Homes in Robeson County, who recently won the county’s annual MLK award from the Robeson County Black Caucus for her tireless work on behalf of residents who had been displaced by Hurricane Matthew. Grant money from the Initiative played a key role in fast-forwarding reconstruction. Read more in the regional HUD newsletter about McLean’s work and that of countless local individuals and organizations who rallied to make sure the residents felt supported even during the months they were displaced from their homes.
