Affordable Housing Initiative

Implementation

Stewarding a Path Forward: An Initiative for Affordable Housing for Older Adults This report identifies policy, practice and partnership recommendations to reduce barriers to increased affordable housing options for older adults. Advocacy efforts should cultivate public, private and government support for policies that increase affordable housing options for this population. Timely distribution of information and data, including demographics, social and political trends, and best-practices specifically targeting affordable housing for lower income older adults, is critical. Local efforts should be aligned and coordinated – ultimately private-public sector collaboration is vital for success. The Affordable Housing Alliance for Older Adults is dedicated to supporting the creation of long term, innovative and sustainable affordable housing options, and will work with community members, stakeholders, nonprofits, business entities, and local jurisdictions to ensure the needs of a diverse and vulnerable older adult population are met.
