All Housing is Local: Creating Homes in Massachusetts Communities

With an urgent demand for more housing of all types in Massachusetts, join ULI Boston for key insights into the winding road through cities and towns to support housing growth and the new opportunities on the horizon. Two panels of expert practitioners across sectors will share their perspectives and experience. The first panel will center on how Massachusetts is unlocking housing in cities and towns through legislative levers like the MBTA Communities law and other policy and economic tools. The second will explore the best ways to achieve critically important community support for new housing- from advocacy to counter common misconceptions, the best ways to use data, and the latest developments on the state level to open opportunity.
