Policy + Legislative Support

Advancing Pro-Housing Legislation

Champion laws that promote affordable homeownership production, including streamlining permitting and entitlement processes for the development of ownership housing, and creating incentives for nonprofit housing developers and their partners.

Zoning Reform

Advocate for zoning changes that allow for higher density, accessory dwelling units (ADUs), and missing middle housing and affordable homeownership opportunities in areas that are currently restricted.

Inclusionary Housing Policies

Support policies that require a percentage of new housing developments to be affordable to help create more opportunities for Habitat affiliates to build partnerships with market-rate developers and build homes that lower-income families can purchase.
