Since our founding in 1952, NCR has continuously refined our program initiatives based on community need. Today, NCR is committed to five core programs; comprehensive rental housing counseling, advocacy for people experiencing housing discrimination, wraparound support for immigrants and refugees, and two programs to keep seniors at home, and in their community—case management for at-risk seniors, and home repairs focused on accessibility and safety.
