Why does Alabama need LIHCA?
There is a statewide housing crisis! Alabama lacks over 90,000 affordable and available units for low-wage earning families.
2021 SCHH covid Health & Safety Guidance
With the health and safety of our participants in mind, the Low-Income Housing Coalition of Alabama (LIHCA) is pleased to confirm that the 2021 Southern Conference on Homelessness and Housing will move forward by offering one great program through two different formats.
This year, attendees will be given the option to participate in either live, in-person sessions OR live, virtual sessions tracks. While this year’s format will be different, the goals remain the same – to bring together a diverse community of stakeholders to share information, explore resources, discover best practices, and explore innovative approached to address housing challenges.
Considering the ongoing spread of COVID-19, individuals who choose not to adhere to any of the following requirements should not engage in an on-site event hosted by CSI, LIHCA, and/or PASWHA.
