Impact Investments: Affordable Housing in Small Communities

Addressing affordable housing and substandard housing issues often come with political and community resident complications that make progress slow. Learn how the Healthcare Foundation of LaPorte took on a leadership role in affordable housing and created the path to change. Our session will discuss approaches to generating board engagement, the development of a comprehensive Housing Plan,  and the establishment of a dedicated Housing Committee. The discussion will be led by Debby Kasemeyer, Director of Community Development and Investments at Northern Trust. Debby has invested more than $4.5B of Northern Trust’s own capital in communities.
