Ensuring people have the ability to live near quality jobs is vital to a strong and resilient economy. Challenges around the supply and affordability of housing are impacting workers across the Third District. The Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia will host a series of events to examine workforce housing and advance collaborative solutions.
Pathways to Housing Affordability
This three-part series will explore the current housing supply across the region and identify the challenges workers face in affording homes near quality jobs. The series will convene business and community leaders, policymakers, bankers, researchers, and experts in the housing and workforce development sectors to advance collaborative solutions.
Part 1: Innovations in Products and Partnerships to Advance Workforce Housing
This event is hosted in partnership with the Delaware State Housing Authority, New Jersey Housing and Mortgage Finance Agency, and Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency.
The first session will focus on:
- housing needs for working families across Delaware, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania;
- tools and resources necessary to support broader access to housing and more affordable options for working families;
- products designed to increase financing options for homebuyers and assist in the current lending landscape; and
- cross-sector partnerships and streamlined pathways that can support sustainable housing solutions in communities.
