Join us in DC!
In less than two months, we’re gathering in Washington, DC for Policy. Practice. Power. ([link removed]) Grounded Solution’s Network’s Housing Conference. Have you registered yet? In addition to two days packed with exciting plenaries and breakout sessions, we’ll be hitting the town for several mobile community tours that will highlight what lasting affordability with equitable impact looks like in action. Participants can expect a mix of riding on the bus, walking short distances and seeing affordable housing projects in different phases of development.

** Community tours will take place Tuesday, May 10 from 2:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. Options include:
------------------------------------------------------------
Washington, DC
Get to know DC beyond the monuments and soundbites--hear how Douglass CLT members are Paying It Forward in some of the more than 130 neighborhoods of the Douglass Commonwealth. Visit with resident leaders at sites representing a spectrum of projects in the Douglass CLT portfolio, including limited equity housing cooperatives, large multi-family apartments, rentals with a planned conversion to ownership, along with new construction ownership.
Montgomery County, MD
Join staff from Montgomery County, Maryland— one of the oldest and largest inclusionary housing programs in the nation— on a tour of affordable housing properties in Silver Spring. Learn how they have leveraged county-land for a senior housing development, see a major new mixed-use development on the site of a former public housing project, visit a few of the County’s more than 6,000 current for-sale and rental inclusionary zoning MPDUs.
Northern Virginia
Hop over the Potomac River to Northern Virginia to see firsthand how the Amazon Housing Equity Fund is supporting developers, nonprofits, and local governments to bring needed long-term housing affordability to the region. We’ll visit several projects that Amazon has funded to learn how private-sector companies can partner with communities to create and protect inclusive, affordable places to live.
