Dr. Ben Carson is hard at work streamlining and enhancing the way we serve America’s affordable housing needs.

WSB’s Scott Slade and Monica Matthews had the opportunity to speak with the current HUD Secretary on Tuesday.

Dr. Carson addressed many topics including how private business can be recruited to spark a revolution in affordable housing. "I want to eliminate the blight that lots of people associate with public housing,” he explains, adding, “It's not rats, roaches and crime any more."
