September 16: Introduction to Community Land Trusts with John Davis
The Community Housing Forum invites you to a presentation by John Davis about Community Land Trusts. Come learn how the Community Land Trust model can help us address housing needs in our area. A Community Land Trust (CLT) is a community-based organization that owns land and develops permanently affordable homes and other lasting community assets. The Community Housing Forum will also introduce Headwaters Community Trust, a new CLT organizing to serve our region.
John Davis is a co-founder of Burlington Associates, and has spent over 40 years assisting CLTs and other nonprofit organizations engaged in the production and stewardship of permanently affordable housing and community development throughout the United States. He is also a co-founder of the International Center for Community Land Trusts and the author of many publications including The Community Land Trust Handbook.
John Davis will present for 30 minutes starting promptly at 6, and be available until 7 for questions, after which the organizers of Headwaters Community Trust will be available to continue the conversation until 7:30.
Everyone is welcome and the event is free. The Community Housing Forum is hosted by the East Craftsbury Presbyterian Church, located at 1773 East Craftsbury Road in Craftsbury. Please join us!
