We partner with national organizations to protect and expand federal support for affordable homes and community development. We work with Minnesota members of Congress to support housing and community development issues.

We monitor administrative actions by the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the United States Department of Agriculture, and more, speaking out on the implications of proposed rules and policies. 

Current initiatives include Rural Rental Housing Preservation, including a focus on USDA Rural Development Section 515 properties, and the Minnesota Chapter of Opportunity Starts at Home (OSAH-MN).
