Businesses across the country are looking to hire, but there’s something standing in the way – the housing shortage. Employees can’t accept jobs in different cities because there aren’t enough homes for them to relocate to.

In Sheboygan County, four family-owned companies are coming together to help new hires become homeowners. Correspondent Jessica Gomez travels there to meet the business owners behind the effort.
