I will be coordinating my efforts at LISC with the Arizona Housing Alliance; we will be working on a fact sheet booklet that details advocacy of affordable housing. How is affordable housing related to health, its benefits to business, education etc? We will be classifying median sale prices of homes and the income, which would be classified into low, very low etc. My research would include finding literature that establishes a relationship between the above mentioned variables.
First task is to look at some sample affordable housing programs from some other states and see how they are doing it. In defense of affordable housing, a catchy title could be task number two. I am looking at the brochure for the California campaign for affordable housing; they have attributed homelessness to various behavioral problems and risks that it poses to the society. Another major State to look at for example is Texas; the Texas State Affordable Housing Corporation operates affordable housing programs for first time home buyers and assists in developing affordable multifamily housing.
Let me look at some more samples and see what I can find.
