Title

National Housing Institute and Shelterforce

Description

The National Housing Institute was founded in 1975 as an independent nonprofit organization that examines the issues causing the crisis in housing and community in America. NHI examines the key issues affecting affordable housing and community development practitioners and their supporters. These issues include housing, jobs, safety, and education, with an emphasis on housing and economic development, as well as poverty and racism, disinvestment and lack of employment, and breakdown of the social fabric.

NHI examines how these and other factors affect people as they try to build safe and viable neighborhoods. NHI has performed original research on such topics as saving subsidized housing, homelessness prevention, and creating jobs as a component of affordable housing construction.

NHI searches for what does and does not work in community building. We try to understand why some groups have been successful in their activities, or what has caused others to fail. We search for innovative strategies, unique partnerships, and effective ways to organize low-income communities. We then communicate our findings in an objective, journalistic style in Shelterforce, our bi-monthly magazine.
