PRRAC Update (February 21, 2013): Creating balance in the location of LIHTC developments?

February 21, 2013 by

Creating Balance in the Locations of LIHTC Developments: This new report by Jill Khadduri examines the role of state “qualified allocation plans” in influencing the location of new affordable housing tax credit developments in high opportunity communities, and the importance of coordinating housing investment in lower opportunity communities with broader community planning, including other forms of non-housing investment.  This report is a more in-depth followup to our 2008 report that surveyed “best practices” in state qualified allocation plans around the country.  


HUD symposium on affirmative marketing: “All the Best Intentions:  Is Affirmative Marketing Creating Integrated Communities?” In the HUD Brooke-Mondale Auditorium, 451 7th Street S.W., Washington, DC, Tuesday, February 26 (12 pm- 1:30 pm), featuring Professor Maria Krysan, University of Illinois-Chicago, Judith Liben, Senior Attorney, Massachusetts Law Reform Institute, and Philip Tegeler, Executive Director, Poverty & Race Research Action Council. To reserve your seat, please RSVP to TuesdaySpeakerSeries@hud.gov.

Honoring Chester Hartman: As we announced last month, the National Low Income Housing Coalition is honoring PRRAC Research Director Chester Hartman with their annual Cushing Dolbeare award on March 19 (6pm at the Washington Court Hotel). If you want to attend the awards reception, you can go to the nlihc.org conference registration page, or you can simply mail a check to the Coalition at: NLIHC Awards Reception, 727 15th Street, NW, 6th Floor, Washington, DC 20005.  Tickets are $75 for NLIHC members and $125 for non-members.
