Community Development Alliance (CDA) is hosting a live webinar titled Road to Housing Act at noon for the Badger State Housing Alliance Curds of Wisdom.

Community Development Alliance (CDA) is an affiliation of stakeholders that has collaborated for more than a decade on neighborhood improvement efforts in Milwaukee. Recognizing that housing inequities are deep and broad, and prohibit families from building generational wealth, CDA narrowed its focus in 2020 to providing a quality, affordable home for every Milwaukeean. What resulted from this work is Milwaukee’s Collective Affordable Housing Plan, the first of its kind. Composed of over 80 housing advocates, funders, and practitioners, CDA is responsible for collective action around the plan, which includes strategy development, shared measurement, and continuous communication. Our alliance has engaged contractors for communications, government relations, resident engagement, and research related to Plan Implementation. We continue to work towards growing resources within our alliance to meet additional legal and evaluation support as well. As part of our community commitment CDA hosts quarterly meetings of all stakeholders, typically drawing nearly 100 participants. The alliance is governed by a 14-member executive committee that includes resident liaisons, together with leadership in the public, private, and philanthropic sectors.
