As we step into 2025, the new Administration's actions are already reshaping housing policy. The recent White House announcement to temporarily pause agency grants, loans, and other financial assistance programs highlights the importance of staying informed with accurate information.
The National Housing Conference (NHC)’s Housing Resource Center (HRC) is the definitive destination for all your federal policy needs in housing. We update the platform at least every week and have already included a host of information on the latest administrative actions.
Nowhere else will you find a platform that captures information from across the housing spectrum – catering to the diverse needs of policymakers, journalists, lenders, home builders, civil rights groups, consumer and affordable housing advocates, real estate professionals, nonprofit and for-profit housing development corporations, academics, and more. The HRC offers access to an ever-expanding collection of over 2,000 resources, presenting an unparalleled wealth of knowledge in a single, centralized repository. Let’s explore the content available on this innovative platform.
The HRC’s collection of resources is organized under twelve umbrellas: Climate, Community Development, Health and Housing, Homelessness, Homeownership, Preservation, Production and Supply, Racial Equity, Regulatory Reform, Rental Housing, Sustainability, and Technology. Resources span from news articles to toolkits to congressional actions, all searchable by topic and type of resource.
The HRC also provides comprehensive lists of housing-related blogs, podcasts, and data tools that housers can use to build on their understanding of current events and deepen their knowledge of housing and community development. Visitors to the HRC can also search for any desired content, aided by background tagging to access the most up-to-date information on the topic.
As an organization, NHC works to bridge the gaps between our diverse members and offers a place for housers to come together to find solutions to our affordable housing policy challenges. So, be sure to visit NHC’s Housing Resource Center to view the wealth of resources available, and if you aren’t already, be sure to become an NHC member.
Brittany Webb is the National Housing Conference’s Director of Research.
