National Council of State Housing Agencies (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The United State's Housing Finance Agencies (HFAs) created the National Council of State Housing Agencies (NCSHA) as a nonprofit organization more than 30 years ago to coordinate and leverage their federal advocacy efforts for affordable housing. NCSHA is the principal advocate in Washington for both MRBs and the Housing Credit and the principal state advocate for HOME. NCSHA's members are the HFAs of every state, the agencies that allocate the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (Housing Credit) in the two states where an HFA does not, and approximately 350 profit and nonprofit firms in the affordable housing field. NCSHA represents its members in Washington before Congress, the Administration, and several federal agencies concerned with housing, including HUD and the Treasury, and with other advocates for affordable housing.
