The National Low Income Housing Coalition

The National Low Income Housing Coalition (NLIHC) is a nonprofit organization in the United States that advocates for affordable housing for low-income individuals and families. Founded in 1974, it conducts research, raises public awareness, and lobbies for policies that increase access to safe and affordable homes. The NLIHC works to ensure that government programs and funding effectively address housing needs, aiming to eliminate homelessness and housing instability. By collaborating with local organizations and communities, the coalition strives to influence legislation that supports equitable housing opportunities for all, particularly those with the lowest incomes.
