Turning the Dream of Homeownership into Reality Since 1999
Individual Development Accounts (IDAs)
Individual Development Accounts are dedicated savings accounts that support low-income
workers to save earnings, acquire assets and build wealth. Asset goals include homeownership,
micro-enterprise ownership and post-secondary education. It is the only program
of its kind whose success is dependent on the saving and dedication of participants,
thereby ensuring their long-term success as productive citizens.
With the support of the New Century IDA working group and success coaches, our dedicated
clients' dreams of successful homeownership turn into reality.
