Historical Perspectives on Federal Housing Policy

The AHA hosted a Congressional Briefing to offer historical perspectives on the impact of federal housing policy. Panelists Lizabeth Cohen (Harvard Univ.), N. D. B Connolly (Johns Hopkins Univ.), and D. Bradford Hunt (Loyola Univ., Chicago) have published important books relating to housing challenges facing American communities; they drew on that work to provide historical context on housing policy issues that Congress engages. AHA executive director James Grossman served as moderator.
