Rural Americans Want Affordable Housing Agenda

Housing Assistance Council:

Americans worry about having a decent affordable place to live.

More than 95 percent of rural Americans surveyed in a recent Zogby poll said having affordable housing is a high priority or their number one priority.

"As a member of the Housing America 2007 coalition, the Housing Assistance Council is committed to a national affordable housing agenda," said Moises Loza, executive director of the Housing Assistance Council.

Housing America 2007 aims to raise public consciousness of the critical role of housing and community development initiatives and the fundamental benefits the nation receives from these activities.

The Housing Assistance Council is committed to improving housing conditions for the rural poor, with an emphasis on the poorest of the poor in the most rural places.

Coalition members are: National Association of Housing and Redevelopment Officials, AFSCME, U.S. Conference of Mayors, Housing Assistance Council, Local Initiatives Support Corporation, Mortgage Bankers Association, National Association of Counties, National Association of Home Builders, National Association of Realtors, National Council of State Housing Agencies, National Housing Conference, National League of Cities, and National Low Income Housing Coalition.
