The Housing Advocacy Committee (HAC) addresses affordable housing and homelessness in the state of Minnesota. Architects can play a key role in resolving these social problems by joining this committee. They may also assist in planning and participating in our annual Search for Shelter Design charrette, held each February, to benefit local housing agencies, along with other committee activities.

JOINT MEETING WITH HEALTH DESIGN KNOWLEDGE COMMUNITY

Virtual Meeting (NOTE NEW LINK)

Join a virtual discussion between the Housing Advocacy Committee and the Health Design Knowledge Community exploring emerging hybrid housing–healthcare typologies, including integrated and co-located models, and their implications for zoning, density, and policy frameworks. The conversation will examine whether these models should be embedded within healthcare systems or addressed through broader government affairs and land-use strategies
