Housing Arizona
The 93rd Arizona Town Hall, "Housing Arizona," is focusing on all aspects of the housing industry including workforce and affordable housing.
The background report, prepared by The Drachman Institute at the University of Arizona, provides in-depth knowledge about the multiple dimensions of housing issues in Arizona.
After convening community leaders at the Grand Canyon November 2-5, we will publish a summary as well as a full report of consensus-based recommendations and findings, and conduct community outreach programs in cities and towns throughout the state.
