Hope's Path Executive Director Brandon Anderchuk told Community Impact the nonprofit is holding an open house March 28 for its project offering independent living for its graduates. Triplex Transition Housing began operating on Feb. 1 and is in the process of accepting Hope's Path graduates as occupants

About the program: Triplex is designed to provide independent living for graduates of Hope Path’s program as they transition into the next stage of life.

Quote of note: “It represents an important step in helping our young men move from structured program living into stable, self-sufficient housing, while still remaining connected to mentorship and support,” Anderchuk said.

In case you missed it: According to its website, Hope's Path was founded in 2016 after a group of local pastors, businessmen and community members saw the need.

More moderate prices have led to an influx of homes hitting the market, according to the Houston Association of Realtors' February 2026 housing market update. While there was a slight decrease in home sales, buyer activity has increased across the region.

The gist: According to HAR, property sales of all types compared to February last year have dwindled by 3.3%, with 7,024 properties sold. Despite this, the number of properties listed has risen by 14.3%, with 55,710 properties now available. 

According to HAR Chief Economist Ted C. Jones, the Houston housing market has been “bottoming out” for the past several years and is now returning to pre-pandemic levels.

As it stands right now, the median price declined 0.9% year over year in February to $322,078. Homes have also been spending more time on the market this February compared to last February—the average days spent on the market for a home went from 60 to 69 days, which is the highest it’s been since March 2013, when the average time was 74 days.

In honor of Women's History Month, which runs March 1-31, here are a few women-owned businesses located in the Greater Houston area.

​​Retail Therapy
After years of responding to emergencies as an EMT, Kimberly Smith found a different way to take care of people in 2006. Smith now serves the community through a consignment store she took over 20 years ago with used brand-name clothing in Cypress.

Beyond resale, the shop extends its mission by donating clothing to a local women's shelter, turning gently worn pieces into a source of identity and fresh starts for women in need.
