Illinois Housing Development Authority

This document serves as Illinois' 2024 Annual Comprehensive Housing Plan Progress Report, evaluating initiatives and activities against housing goals. It outlines four policy priorities: addressing inequities in housing, advancing access for priority populations, supporting economic resiliency and energy efficiency in affordable housing, and maximizing the impact of resources through partnerships and leadership capacity. The plan aims to coordinate public and private efforts to meet diverse housing needs, ensure safe and affordable options for all residents, and foster resilient communities.

Lincoln Avenue, Indian Trail Apartments, Forest Apartments, and Prairie View Apartments, with requests for tax credits and conduit bond issuances for these developments. The Single Family/Homeownership report highlighted reservation performance, demographic analysis of purchased loans, and the launch of the AccessHome program.
