Home For All: A Strategic Plan for Montgomery County 

Affordable homes are increasingly out of reach for county residents of all income levels and backgrounds. To address this, Montgomery County has moved forward on a strategic plan for housing. Homes For All is focused on several themes:  

  • Keeping housing affordable for all homeowners and renters
  • Advancing equitable access to housing for low-income families, communities of color, vulnerable seniors, and people with disabilities
  • Stimulating economic growth and neighborhood revitalization 
  • Promoting vibrant and welcoming neighborhoods with affordable homes in high opportunity areas
  • Encouraging municipalities to remove zoning barriers 
  • Streamlining acquisition and approval processes for housing developers
  • Mobilizing policymaker, business, and public support
  • Leveraging new funding opportunities

“Housing is a cornerstone of the social determinants of health, and housing costs can impact job mobility, postsecondary educational attainment, and so many of the daily facets of health.  The Homes for All program is designed to relieve some of those pressures on individuals in order to provide a foundation for everyone to live in a thriving community.”   - Stephen Forster, Director of Commerce Montgomery County
