Closing on Affordable Homes
for Needy Families
Mr. Carlton Dixon, a resident of Dawson, Georgia, and an employee of
Golden Peanut Company, recently purchased the first affordable home
built for low-income families by the James L. Barnes Community
Development Corporation (CDC) – a client organization that Georgia
Legal Services has represented for years.
“We overcame many obstacles along the way and talked with several
mortgage companies to achieve this outcome for the Dixon family,”
said Homero Leon, Specialist Attorney of Georgia Legal Services.
“Where there is injustice, we should correct it. Where there is poverty, we should eliminate
it. Where there is corruption, we should stamp it out. Where there is violence, we should
punish it. Where there is neglect, we should provide care. When there is war, we should
restore peace. And wherever corrections are achieved, we should add them permanently to
our storehouse of treasures.”
– U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice Earl Warren
