Networking Breakfast: Illinois Workforce Housing Solutions
Illinois is among the nation’s leaders in its growing housing crisis, with a shortage of nearly 300,000 affordable rental homes for those most in need. Our affordable housing deficit has negative implications for the growth and retention of businesses throughout the state.
Join the Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce, Illinois Manufacturers’ Association and Illinois Housing Council for a panel discussion on the need for workforce housing and how our organizations are collaborating to support the Build Illinois Homes State Tax Credit, a proven legislative solution to meet the growing demand for affordable housing.
