The Road Ahead: Combating a National Crisis in Affordable Housing
We are facing a national affordable housing crisis. Across the country, veterans in your programs are making strides toward stability yet still find themselves unable to afford housing due to historically low vacancy rates and a drought in affordable housing stock. The Drive to December must include a focus on addressing this crisis in the coming years so we have adequate affordable housing stock for homeless and low-income veterans and their families now and in the future.
At this year’s Housing Summit, we will take a hard look at what it takes to open up new housing opportunities for homeless veterans. As a local leader, you should come prepared to assess your agency's ability to, and interest in, creating and sustaining new affordable housing. Experts on Enhanced Use Lease (EUL), Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC), Olmstead resources, and other permanent supportive housing financing tools will be ready to help you plan out your next steps.
The 2015 NCHV Veterans Access to Housing Summit, "The Drive to December", will be held Oct. 5-6 at the Grand Hyatt Washington in Washington, D.C.
