Policy & Advocacy
We develop and advocate for strategies to combat displacement, promote healthy housing, and increase affordable housing stock. Our research and policy recommendations help attract and retain jobs, promote reliable transportation options, and support development of real estate that local businesses can afford.

Through our collaborative policy advocacy work with state housing finance agencies, process reforms have been achieved with the goal of making it easier for owners to incorporate energy efficiency measures at the time of rehab/recapitalization.
