MPC's EAH model is spotlighted by two organizations advancing best practices among their constituents.
Winning Workplaces, a nonprofit organization that
promotes quality workplaces by providing information, training, ideas,
consulting, and easy-to-use, affordable tools for small and midsize
organizations, is currently spotlighting employer-assisted housing on its Web
site, with an feature article and online toolkit
. According to Winning Workplaces
Chair Kenneth Lehman, former co-chair of Fel-Pro, "We're appealing to the leaders of
small businesses and
not-for-profit organizations on the basis of enlightened
self-interest, not on the basis of a moral or ethical
imperative. The data proves that great workplaces outperform average
ones."
The American Planning Association July
PAS Report
also features EAH and
MPC's related work and partnerships. The Planning Advisory Service publishes reports
covering the planning field's most current issues and most innovative practices.
As EAH has proven to be an effective strategy
for municipalites looking to advance workforce housing solutions in partnership
with private sector leaders, municipal and county planners are encouraged
to tap this APA resource.
