Community Land Trusts Expand to Preserve Affordable Housing
Season 2024
Episode 89
Community land trusts are emerging as a key tool to preserve affordable housing across California, particularly in Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities. These trusts buy land and lease homes to low and moderate-income families, offering a solution to rising housing costs and gentrification. Supporters say the model stabilizes communities while closing homeownership gaps.
