Overview:
CURL supported 6 community-based organizations to create a collaboration to develop and implement policies to maintain and create affordable housing in Rogers Park. This was one of the projects in a 3-yearinitiative funded by HUD’s COPC grant.
Outcome:
Housing database was updated along with assessment of at-risk buildings and completed initial research as outlined by the coalition. A working report, “Potential Strategies for preserving Affordable Housing in Rogers Park,” was produced.
