Welcome
Housing
Action Illinois works to increase and preserve the supply of decent,
affordable, accessible housing in Illinois for low-and moderate-income
households in our state, particularly for households with the lowest
incomes. We
seek to achieve our mission through three programs: Organizing,
Policy
Advocacy, and Training
and Technical Assistance.
Housing Action Illinois provides the means by
which organizations working with low- and moderate-income households
actively influence state and federal housing policy. Supported
by Housing Action Illinois, the collective power and influence
of our members and allies are more fully realized.
Our
technical assistance work increases the capacity of nonprofit developers
and housing counseling agencies to enrich the civic life of the
communities they serve.
