Quotes from Regulators
I commend the Foundation for working with the banking industry to protect low and moderate income seniors and Veterans living in nursing homes. Your programs are providing critical community services that they might certainly otherwise go without. The Senior Crimestoppers program assures that these seniors have a safe place to call home. The FDIC strongly supports these efforts and we show it by granting CRA credit for loans and investments the banks make in the Foundation. This is an excellent example of how CRA qualifying activities show a positive return for the community, stake holders and ultimately the institution. Your work will be increasingly relevant for many years to come.
– Sheila Bair, Chairman, FDIC
This Foundation which focuses on ensuring the safety of lower income seniors providing lockboxes for those living in lower income senior housing and funding the Senior Crimestoppers program is incredibly important. It has made a significant difference in the quality of life of an often overlooked part of our communities. These approaches to helping seniors are simple but yet they are effective and they wouldn’t be available if it weren’t for you. So I want to commend you for putting your time and your talent into support of the Foundation and support of its mission.
– Elizabeth A. Duke, Governor, Federal Reserve Board
It is a pleasure to be affiliated with and play a very small role in a Foundation whose mission it is to provide and safe and secure living environment for the elder in skilled and assisted living environments around the country. The bank regulatory agencies have recognized the value of the Foundation’s work and have chosen to recognize the loans and investments which the banks make through the Foundation qualify for CRA credit.
– John Reich, SHCPF Board member and former director of the Office of Thrift Supervision
“We have asked our examiners to support and recognize the loans and investments and other services and assistance that, as banks, you provide through the Senior Housing Crime Prevention Foundation. It is a remarkably important and responsive way to help the needs within a community for a very special group of people.”
– Robert Mooney, Deputy Director of the FDIC’s Division of Supervision and Consumer Protection
“The Foundation is a tangible example of the significant beneficial work that’s possible because of CRA.” The work the Foundation is doing in support of low-to-moderate income individuals is making a difference in communities.”
- Montrice Godard-Yakimov, OTS Managing Director of Compliance and Consumer Protection
Transforming Lives
With the support of our partners, the Senior Housing Crime Prevention Foundation transforms the lives of vulnerable nursing home residents.
