Abstract
As HUD advances its mission to create strong, sustainable, inclusive communities and quality, affordable homes for all, the promotion of mixed-income communities has become a core strategy. Across the U.S., local governments and private developers are increasingly turning to mixed-income development as an approach to deconcentrate poverty and revitalize urban neighborhoods.1 With the Choice Neighborhoods Initiative, launched in 2010, the federal government has extended its commitment to supporting the mixed-income approach to public housing transformation that was first implemented through the HOPE VI initiative in the mid1990s. With the dramatic decrease in public sector funding for public housing, housing authorities are increasingly turning to the privatization of public housing through mixed-income development, and more recently through the Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) program, as a means of generating the capital needed to construct new buildings and renovate existing ones, as well as providing the operating capital to manage and sustain them.
