HLA has advanced understanding of the connections between land use and housing by organizing annual statewide conferences, sponsoring and producing research, and partnering with other organizations to disseminate information. Since 2005, HLA’s educational accomplishments include:
- Convening thirteen statewide conferences, featuring topics such as affordable housing messaging; manufactured home park closures; and linking affordable housing with transportation, economic development, and sustainability projects.
- Collaborating with organizations including AARP, Willamette University College of Law, Lewis and Clark Law School, Oregon Association of Planners, Portland State University, and Disability Rights Oregon to broaden our educational efforts and information delivery.
- Developing a handbook, with the aid of Portland State University and AARP, to support public participation and advocacy by seniors on the topics of land use planning and affordable housing.
- Publishing scholarly and editorial articles in local publications.
- Inviting students onto our board to train the next generation of affordable housing advocates.
