Citizens Bank was mentioned in the release as one of the supporters and providers of the mortgage initiative.
Governor Deval Patrick said in the press release, “by giving more young people and families the opportunity to own a home, we retain our talent pool and create sustainable long-term economic growth.”
Patrick was responsible for delivering over US$ 700m of federal and state tax credits to projects that improve affordable housing, jobs and community.
