At NHREA, accuracy is paramount. Because our readers rely on our resources to navigate housing programs, legal rights, and financial assistance, we apply a multi-step fact-checking process to all articles.
1. Primary Source Verification
We check all claims against official databases and primary documents. This includes state and federal housing guidelines, local code files, and verified reports from agencies like HUD and the Census Bureau. We explicitly link to these primary sources within our articles.
2. Statistical Checking
Any statistical data related to homelessness rates, funding allocations, or program success percentages must be sourced from the latest official annual Point-in-Time (PIT) counts or academic research papers. We avoid using outdated or sensationalized statistics.
3. Regular Content Audits
Housing programs, grants, and municipal regulations change frequently. We review our primary resource guides and state assistance pages regularly to verify that contact details, eligibility criteria, and application links remain accurate and active.
