Introduction to Affordable Housing Development

Workshop Summary

In this session we will start with a high-level overview of affordable housing with a focus on defining common terms and discussing typical approaches to building affordable housing, including how decisions are made about where, how much and for whom housing gets built. We will then hear from key players that make up the affordable housing ecosystem and discuss how each works together to create more housing opportunities. Come ready to learn, ask questions, and prepare yourself to join our pro-housing movement!
