** RVP is one week away, and we cannot wait for you to join us in Georgia!
------------------------------------------------------------

From far and wide, the narrative of affordable housing conversation has taken national prominence, with practitioners, researchers, policymakers, funders, lenders, and community organizers from across the country descending to Atlanta to amplify the need for lasting affordability.

Community Land Trusts are part of a growing voice in this conversation and a significant aspect of our upcoming CLT Summit, scheduled for Wednesday, October 2^nd as part of RVP. We are especially excited by how, for the first time, our field has a proposal (from U.S. Presidential Candidate Senator Bernie Sanders) on the table for $50 Billion in grants for states, cities and towns to establish CLTs ([link removed]) and to support over 1 Million households’ capacity to purchase homes over the next 25 years. We invite you to participate in this purposeful discussion about this proposal and other issues, opportunities, and obstacles that will affect the growth of CLTs in the years ahead.

** Where we live matters.
------------------------------------------------------------


** We bring together an extensive network of partners and member practitioners from local communities who have a deep understanding of best practices in community land trusts, shared equity housing, local housing policies such as inclusionary zoning, and more.

At Grounded Solutions Network, we know what policies and strategies work to build and preserve housing opportunities, and we help communities use them.
