5-A. Shaping the Future of Affordable Senior Housing

LeadingAge is working diligently to advance bold policy goals to preserve, expand, and enhance affordable housing for older adults. During this session, staff from congressional offices and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development will discuss their goals for affordable senior housing. In addition, LeadingAge’s Policy Team will explore how those goals align with and diverge from LeadingAge’s platform to preserve, expand, and enhance service-enriched affordable housing for older adults. Don’t miss this opportunity to review funding, policy, and operational issues affecting affordable housing, including federal rental assistance programs, service coordination, and the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit. You’ll also gain tips for participating in advocacy that helps shape the future of affordable senior housing.
