Innovations in Community Housing

While the cost of traditional cohousing can be out of reach for many folks, housing organizers and developers are coming together to reimagine and embrace forms of community housing that allow for everyday interaction while also preserving affordability. As we seek to become a more inclusive movement, affordability is a top strategy for achieving all kinds of diversity. This session will showcase different types of shared housing models, explore adaptive re-use as a community housing strategy, educate about opportunities and workarounds in building and zoning codes, and identify opportunities in the current market for acquiring and developing property for community use. Join us in thinking outside the box to create more inclusive and affordable spaces for all!
