I’m looking to speak with a range of perspectives to better understand how this model works in practice, its challenges, and its future. I’d love to hear from: Experts / researchers / policymakers who study CLTs, shared equity housing, or housing affordability CLT staff, founders, or board members (especially those involved in development, governance, or community engagement) Residents / homeowners / tenants living in CLT properties (current or past) Funders / investors / philanthropic organizations / public sector leaders supporting CLTs Housing advocates, organizers, or community groups involved in starting or partnering with CLTs Key topics I’m interested in include: How CLTs actually work on the ground (ownership structure, governance, 99-year ground leases, resale restrictions) Real-world impact on affordability, wealth-building, and displacement prevention Success stories and measurable outcomes Challenges (funding, scaling, policy barriers, public understanding) Funding models (government grants, philanthropy, banks, community partnerships) Equity and racial justice dimensions (origins in Civil Rights movement, community control) Partnerships with cities, land banks, or developers The future of CLTs in addressing the U.S. housing crisis
