A list of some Illinois employers offering EAH benefits
Starting in 2000 with one employer-assisted housing
(EAH) program at System Sensor, the initiative has grown dramatically. In
mid-2005, more than 40 employers have committed to participate. While
most employers follow the same homeownership model, providing
down payment assistance and homebuyer counseling (services provided by a
nonprofit REACH partner), each program is customized to meet
the needs of the employer and its workers. Following is a list of some companies
offering an EAH benefit.
