Confronting America's Housing Crisis: Solution for the 21st Century illustration

Across America, housing costs have ballooned in recent decades to consume an ever-increasing portion of the average household's income. These spiraling rents and mortgages have also bred separate crises of displacement and homelessness as well as a decline in homeownership opportunities for younger generations. What's driving America's housing crisis and more importantly, what can be done to fix it?

The Murphy Institute's Center for Public Policy Research, The Atlanta Federal Reserve Bank, Tulane School of Architecture, and A.B. Freeman School of Business invite you to a two-day symposium on housing policy where panels of experts will discuss how to eliminate barriers to housing production, address concerns of race-based valuation, how to broaden access to mortgage markets and other solutions for expanding affordability and abundance in America's housing markets.
