AFREF, in partnership with Georgetown University’s Kalmanovitz Initiative for Labor and the Working Poor, has released a report on the need for increased affordable housing to enhance local economies. Pension funds, which collectively hold over $7.8 trillion, can invest in such housing to address the crisis and support working families, while also fulfilling their fiduciary duties.

The report, Investing for the Common Good: How Workers’ Pensions Can Help Solve the Housing Crisis, is authored by Vonda Brunsting, Lisa Lindsley, Lenore Palladino, Elizabeth Pancotti, Natalia Renta, Tom Sgouros, and David Wood.
