The National Affordable Housing Trust Helps with Reno Projects and Big New Initiative

The National Affordable Housing Trust has as its tag line Helping Create and Preserve Homes for Those in Need. It’s a non profit low income housing tax credit syndicator.

For this episode, our reporter Scott King interviews Lori Little, the president and CEO of the NAHT, and Vice President David Lennon as their  organization joined with two other non profits, the Low Income Investment Fund and the Stewards of Affordable Housing for the Future to start a new partnership to address the nationwide affordable housing crisis. 

They are helping to raise one billion dollars over five years to build new housing for those struggling in our communities.  Little and Lennon also discuss their plans and track record in Reno, which already includes helping establish the Sierra Manor for local seniors.
