Housing Solutions Local Housing Solutions is a one-stop housing policy platform with actionable tools and step-by-step guidance to help cities develop, implement, and monitor local housing strategies. Developed for policymakers and practitioners from cities of different sizes and different levels of resources and technical capacity, LHS presents a rich and evolving set of resources to support comprehensive, balanced, and equitable housing strategies that enhance affordability, protect low-income residents from displacement and unsafe conditions, and foster inclusive neighborhoods. LHS also provides information to help cities pursue housing policies that reduce disparities, advance opportunity, and promote racial equity. Launched in 2018, LHS was developed through the National Community of Practice on Local Housing Policy, a joint project of the NYU Furman Center and Abt Associates. The Community of Practice was led by Ingrid Gould Ellen (NYU Furman Center), Jeffrey Lubell (Abt Associates) and Mark A. Willis (NYU Furman Center). A core Community of Practice working group met intensively over nearly two years to inform LHS’s guiding principles and the website’s structure and content, and a national advisory council helped ensure LHS’s content reflects a broad range of views and experiences. Community of Practice and Advisory board members are listed below.
