La idea de que un hogar digno, con techo que ofrezca protección y seguridad es una necesidad humana básica y necesaria, ha existido desde los tiempos Bíblicos; y esta idea se ha preservado en las culturas a través del tiempo. En Estados Unidos, un país que ha disfrutado de muchas bendiciones, esta idea se transformo en una necesidad nacional después de La Gran Depresión económica de principios del siglo 20 y es así como líderes de la nación decidieron declarar la Le Reforma de Vivienda en 1937. Esta gran buena intención quedo sellada en la historia, y a través de los años, fue modificada para las necesidades actuales. Esta historia habla de cómo estas modificaciones y burocracias añadidas han creado circunstancias que impiden la intención original de presidentes, y legisladores que abrieron sus corazones y sus mentes para ayudar a preservar la idea de que todo ser humano necesita un techo. Al mismo tiempo esta historia intenta crear una conciencia para prevenir un ambiente hostil e indigno en viviendas públicas departe de personal administrativo, y recordar y agradecer a aquellos lideres que tomaron acción y intentaron llenar una gran necesidad, a los que continúan con esta meta de proveer un techo digno al que no lo tiene.
