Affordable Housing
There is a severe shortage of affordable housing for older adults with low incomes. LeadingAge and its members are the chief advocates for affordable senior housing funding, programs, and policies. We work to expand, preserve, and improve the supply of affordable senior housing and better connect residents to the services and supports they need to age in community.

Affordable Housing Programs Are at Risk
President Trump’s Executive Orders and actions by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) could disrupt funding streams and federal staff capacity to support affordable housing for low-income older adults. LeadingAge is tracking the implications for aging services providers—especially those relying on federal programs to house at-risk populations.
