“Looking back to California, our kids couldn’t really run around," says Emily and Stephen Stiles, who recently made the move to Sioux Center, Iowa from the west coast. "So, we wanted land here where they could play outside and get dirty, and we didn’t feel like we were stuck in our space." Beyond the benefits of equity and financial security, Iowa's affordable housing opportunities from purchasing a beautiful home to renting a stylish apartment, means you can live bigger for less(er)! See how these Iowa transplants found a home and community they can thrive in: https://bit.ly/3XDoQub #HomeownershipMonth

This Juneteenth, we’re reflecting on Iowa’s role as a Civil War-era refuge for slaves coming from the southern border. Mount Pleasant, the host city for our Preserve Iowa Summit this month, served as a stop on the Underground Railroad and a hub for abolitionists like Frederick Douglass and Sojourner Truth. The community has worked hard to preserve and even transform historic treasures like Second Baptist Church, the oldest African American church in Iowa. As Iowans, we build a better future by preserving stories so they can be told for generations to come.
