Housing, Communities & Asset Building

Housing Communities and Asset Building quote

From our work driving the federal government’s annual homeless report to our studies of what it takes to provide housing to vulnerable populations, Abt is at the forefront of the effort to ensure everyone has that most basic of human needs: safe, decent and affordable housing.

Abt helps shape housing and community revitalization practices and policy. For more than 50 years, we have conducted rigorous evaluations and supported implementation of a range of initiatives. Cities, foundations, nonprofits, states and the federal government count on us to make a difference.
