Communities around the country are facing an affordable housing crisis, but the good news is that land trusts can be part of the solution. Equitable partnerships between land trusts and affordable housing organizations can bring together expertise across movements to better serve communities.

Join a team of researchers and practitioners to learn about the opportunities for collaboration between land trusts and affordable housing organizations, hear about a model for partnership from Bozeman, Montana, and get acquainted with a brand new set of resources designed to introduce land trusts to the fundamentals of affordable housing and models for equitable partnership between affordable housing organizations and land trusts.
