Affordable Housing Advocacy

The CDA support initiatives that enable everyone to have an opportunity to have a home they can afford. Especially for low- to moderate-income families and individuals, it’s easily the most important aspect to create stability in all other areas of life. With the affordable housing crisis impacting lower-income households, in particular, it’s more important than ever for citizens to get involved.

Below are links for several organizations that provide information on the growing demand for affordable housing and how stable housing can make low-income children and families not only survive, but thrive.

If you have questions about affordable housing in Scott County, please contact us. We are happy to speak with you and your group to help raise awareness and education around housing, and how citizens can get involved.
