NLIHC is pleased to announce the release of the 2016 Advocates’ Guide: An Educational Primer on Federal Programs and Resources Related to Affordable Housing and Community Development. The Advocates’ Guide has long been the authoritative reference for advocates and affordable housing providers seeking a quick and convenient way to understand affordable housing programs, policies, and regulations. The Advocates’ Guide is made possible thanks to the generous support of PNC Bank.
The 2016 Advocates’ Guide contains eleven chapters that cover such topics as an introduction to affordable housing, advocacy resources, rental housing programs for the lowest income households, community development resources, and programs and laws affecting low-income households. The Advocates’ Guide is a go-to resource for affordable housing and community development practitioners, advocates, and policymakers for detailed descriptions of every federal housing and community development program, as well as current challenges, opportunities, and practical strategies for addressing the shortfall in housing that is affordable and available to low income people and communities.
The 2016 Advocates’ Guide authors are NLIHC staff members and experts from many of NLIHC’s partner organizations.
