ULI’s Terwilliger Center for Housing envisions every U.S. community having the appropriate housing stock to meet the diverse local needs of households across the income spectrum.

• Highlights and socializes innovative and effective residential projects, strategies, development practices, and public policies;
• Supports ULI, member, and community efforts to produce substantially more homes for both rental and ownership; and
• Supports ULI, member, and community efforts to preserve homes affordable to households earning less than 120 percent of median income.

The center’s team conducts research, performs analysis, provides expert advice, and develops best-practice recommendations that reflect the residential land use and development priorities of ULI members in all residential product types, with special attention to workforce and affordable housing.
