Becky Koepnick Presents LIHTC Research
January 28, 2013 – Since it was created in 1986, the LIHTC program has created over 2.2 million units of affordable housing and today it is the largest affordable housing program in the US. Presenting at the Affordable Housing Tax Credit Coalition annual meeting, Director of the Furman Center’s Moelis Institue for Affordable Housing Policy Becky Koepnick will discuss current and ongoing Furman Center research on the LIHTC program. Past research has found that LIHTC residents live near higher performing schools than other poor residents and that the program serves lower income residents official rules require.
