Developers, homeless service providers, advocates, and policymakers throughout Iowa recently launched the Iowa Housing Partnership. Their first event as a new organization was an affordable housing forum held on September 4. The forum featured a discussion of advocacy goals and remarks from Lieutenant Governor Adam Gregg (R) and business executive Fred Hubbell, the Democratic Party candidate for governor. The new organization is distinctly focused on advocacy, with a mission to inform and influence policy at the state, local, and federal levels. The Iowa Housing Partnership is now working to build its membership and craft a specific policy agenda.
