The Illinois Housing Development Authority is helping expand access to affordable senior housing across the state through investments supported by the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit program. These developments are designed to give older Illinoisans more opportunities to remain in the communities they know while providing long-term, affordable housing options.

Here in our region, North Bend Senior Residences in Fairview Heights is part of that effort, bringing 60 new affordable units for seniors 62 and older. Congratulations to everyone who helped make this project possible!
