Local Housing Plans
Housing is place based. Local community leadership is essential in moving any housing strategy forward. Many North Dakota communities have created or updated their own housing plans in the last 3 years.

North Dakota Housing Initiative Advisory Committee
The members of the ND Housing Initiative Advisory Committee were appointed by Governor Burgum to help shape and refine the state's approach to addressing housing as a key workforce issue. The Committee members' broad range of perspectives and experiences will be invaluable as they come together to champion opportunities to remove housing as a barrier to continued economic growth.
