In this series, the Intend Indiana team explains how we partner with community-based organizations, non-profits, foundations, banks, and state/local governments to leverage resources and deliver impactful programs to meet the community’s needs.
In this episode, Intend Indiana CEO, Steven Meyer, sits down with Lou Tisler, Executive Director of the National NeighborWorks Association, to discuss the importance of getting and maintaining the advocacy of elected officials when it comes to affordable housing and community development initiatives.
