Building on the success of the first National Inclusionary Housing Conference in Washington DC in October 2005,

Building Strong Mixed-Income Communities will inform and inspire attendees at various levels of expertise on the topic.

Is your community considering or currently crafting a policy? Or are you looking for help implementing an existing policy? This conference is designed to inform and inspire you and to connect you with outstanding experts and resources. You’ll learn about the value of Inclusionary Housing and how this promising policy tool is working in a wide variety of locations. You’ll hear about best practices and get answers to challenges that arise with any Inclusionary Housing program. This conference is also designed to build bridges between key constituencies who often disagree over policy options to address the affordable housing crisis. This conference will take the conversation begun in 2005 to the next level.
