How Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Can Help Make Housing Affordable

Homeownership has always been at the heart of the American dream, but today that dream is increasingly out of reach for many Americans. This video provides an overview of the history and purpose of the government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and highlights the innovative approaches they can take to address the current housing crisis. 

Join us for a webinar hosted by Shelterforce on April 16, 2026, where leaders from across the housing and community development field will discuss how Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac can better fulfill their mission to support affordable homeownership.
