National Housing Conference

Never before have housing issues been more urgent. As the United Voice for Housing for the past 80 years, the National Housing Conference (NHC) is front and center, convening thought leaders and helping educate policy makers on vital reforms so that all in America have a safe, decent, and affordable place to call home.

From helping to secure federal NSP funds for communities that were hit particularly hard by the foreclosure crisis to advocating for GSE multifamily finance reform, together with our members and partners we are making a difference.

NHC's 2011 policy and advocacy agenda includes:

- Prevent Foreclosures and Stabilize Impacted Neighborhoods
- Help Working Families Meet Their Housing Challenges
- Strengthen the Nation's Housing Finance System
- Improve the Coordination of Housing, Transportation and Energy Policy
- Support and Strengthen Federal Low-Income Housing Programs

NHC’s research affiliate, the Center for Housing Policy, specializes in developing solutions through research. In partnership with NHC and its members, the Center works to broaden understanding of the nation’s housing challenges and to examine the impact of policies and programs developed to address these needs.
