The Charlotte is Home Center

The Charlotte Is Home Center is built on thoughtful, intentional partnerships. Last Friday, CIHC partner organizations came together to share their unique challenges, needs, and motivations. These ongoing conversations shape how we collaborate, making sure that what we offer is both accessible to and aligned with our community. A huge shoutout to this team of UNC Charlotte faculty for their continued support, expertise, and partnership.
