PolicyMap at NCSHA Annual Conference in Boston

The Louisiana Housing Finance Agency uses PolicyMap as a platform for increasing transparency and sharing information about all of their investments – across all funding streams – with staff throughout the agency. These interactive maps currently live on their intranet page. Over time, they hope to share this tool with other local agencies and their public.

“We are currently working with other local agencies to see if more of them can begin using PolicyMap as a platform for their data. We would love to see PolicyMap become a comprehensive data repository that will encourage local collaboration.”

“Since Hurricane Katrina, LHFA has seen a dramatic growth in new housing investments in the region. With this came the need for us to maintain and access large volumes of housing data. PolicyMap gave us the ability to upload our data and have this data interact with larger, frequently updated data from the Census or HUD. This capacity is critical to helping us strategically plan our future investments.”
