2009 Highlights
“LISC understands that if you want to make a difference at the local level, whether it’s housing, schools or anything else, you have to look at the broader community and the other needs in that community.”
Shaun Donovan
Secretary, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development
LISC is doing just that. Despite a very challenging year, LISC’s Building Sustainable Communities strategy has taken root, and the impact has been quite remarkable. We are creating good places to live, work, do business, and raise families.
