Annual Report
“I can’t think of a time when affordable housing has been more important to our communities or our national economy,” says Matt Reilein, president & CEO of National Equity Fund. “It is a public health imperative, serving as a bulwark against the coronavirus. It creates jobs and boosts local income in the midst of a recession. And it is a core component of racial and economic justice, helping reduce inequality so that millions of people can build a good quality of life.”
