Conn. Gen. Stat. § 8-283: Declaration of policy.

It is hereby found and declared that many Connecticut residents lack sufficient financial resources to make down payments or regular mortgage payments on private housing; that it is in the public interest to provide state financial assistance to such residents to minimize the disruptive effect of condominium conversion and to encourage home ownership and the rehabilitation of deteriorating housing in order to stabilize communities, improve the tax base and assist home ownership by low and moderate income families; and that the provisions of this chapter will further such objectives.
