Welcome

Housing Action Illinois works to increase and preserve the supply of decent, affordable, accessible housing in Illinois for low-and moderate-income households in our state, particularly for households with the lowest incomes.  We seek to achieve our mission through three programs: Organizing, Policy Advocacy, and Training and Technical Assistance.

Housing Action Illinois provides the means by which organizations working with low- and moderate-income households actively influence state and federal housing policy. Supported by Housing Action Illinois, the collective power and influence of our members and allies are more fully realized. 

Our technical assistance work increases the capacity of nonprofit developers and housing counseling agencies to enrich the civic life of the communities they serve.

Please explore the remainder of our website to learn more about the progress we are making to increase and preserve the supply of decent, affordable, accessible housing in Illinois for low and moderate-income households. We hope that you will join our efforts!
