Housing affordability is a national challenge — but its impact is deeply local.

In Greater Cincinnati, there is a shortage of nearly 55,000 affordable housing units.



That’s why LISC Greater Cincinnati is investing in local Community Development organizations like Price Hill Will, Inside Avondale, Working In Neighborhoods, The Center for Great Neighborhoods of Covington, Brighton Center, Walnut Hills Redevelopment Foundation, College Hill Community Urban Redevelopment Corporation (CHCURC), NEST - Northsiders Engaged in Sustainable Transformation, and more to help expand and preserve housing opportunities that meet the needs of our community.

LISC President and CEO Michael T. Pugh recently spoke with Comcast Newsmakers about what it will take to address housing affordability across the country — and why housing is fundamental to strong local economies.
