Housing
In 2013, in partnership with the City of Chicago, Local Initiatives Support Corporation, Neighborhood Housing Services, and Community Investment Corporation, ACT initiated the Micro Market Recovery Program in Austin. This initiative seeks to stabilize current owners and renters, and attract new ones, to targeted blocks in Austin. ACT is building the capacity of local block clubs, non-profit and for-profit developers, and housing counseling agencies to work together to stabilize ownership of housing in Austin.
