INDIANAPOLIS, IN – Prosperity Indiana is excited to announce the renewal of its grant to participate in the Opportunity Starts at Home (OSAH) campaign, a program of the National Low Income Housing Coalition (NLIHC). This grant will further support Prosperity Indiana’s efforts to build multi-sector partnerships and advocate for stable, affordable housing solutions, particularly focusing on faith-based and veterans-serving organizations.

As a recognized affiliate of the OSAH national campaign, Prosperity Indiana will continue to collaborate with other state-based organizations, participate in cohort learning experiences, and receive access to valuable technical assistance and networks. The new grant will allow Prosperity Indiana to recruit and assemble an Engagement Team of faith-based and veterans-serving organizations and leaders, emphasized on educating the public about OSAH priorities, curating projects that express public support for OSAH-endorsed federal policies, and advocating for policies that advance housing justice and racial equity.

"Organizations from all sectors have good reasons to care about Indiana's affordable housing crisis, and we've had great success building multisector partnerships to address it--especially in healthcare and among faith-based partners. We're very fortunate to receive continued support from the Opportunity Starts At Home campaign to continue this important work," said Prosperity Indiana Policy Manager Hale Crumley.

The renewed OSAH grant will support customized advocacy plans for Engagement Team members, including outreach to the congressional delegation, op-eds, and social media promotion. Prosperity Indiana will continue to work with faith-based partners while expanding its efforts to include veterans-serving organizations.

Prosperity Indiana looks forward to continuing our critical work of advocating for housing policies that reflect the needs of our communities.
