WHAT ARE COMMUNITY LAND TRUST (CLTs)
Community Land Trusts are nonprofit organizations that own land and lease it to residents, cooperatives, and community organizations. This innovative model separates land ownership from home ownership, ensuring that housing remains affordable in perpetuity while giving residents democratic control over their community's future.
Our country is facing a grave housing and homeownership crisis that is impacting families and communities nationwide.
