Picture
Joining Forces for Affordable Housing was started in the winter of 2017 by Sue Loellbach from Connections for the Homeless and Adrian Willoughby from Reba Place Development Corporation. The initial Steering Committee for Joining Forces included housing experts, practitioners, and advocates including the following:
​
  • Nia Brown, then with the YWCA Evanston Northshore
  • Birch Burghardt, then on the Board of Directors of Interfaith Action of Evanston
  • Sarah Delgado, Chicago Area Fair Housing Alliance
  • Sharon Legenza, Housing Action Illinois
  • David Luna, then with Open Communities
  • Jennifer O’Neil, affordable housing practitioner and advocate
  • Mark Tendam, then a Board member of Connections for the Homeless
  • Bonnie Wilson, realtor with Berkshire Hathaway
 
Since then, Joining Forces has grown to include several hundred individual members and more than 30 organizations.
 
The organizational and individual members of Joining Forces work together to:
  • Decide upon advocacy issues to fight for
  • Use their voices to advocate on those issues
