The Terner Center for Housing Innovations │The Links Between Affordable Housing and Economic Mobility
The Terner Center for Housing Innovations at UC Berkley (The Terner Center), in partnership with the California Community Reinvestment Corporation (CCRC), released new research highlighting the impact living in affordable housing has on residents’ economic mobility and other positive outcomes. Limiting its research to Low Income Housing Tax Credit (Housing Credit) properties for families, and considering properties located in both lower and higher poverty neighborhoods, The Terner Center examined the role the Housing Credit plays in stabilizing low-income families through more than 250 resident surveys across 18 California Housing Credit properties.
