Appalachia Meets World Episode 55 - Affordable Housing Crisis (an Urban Connection) with Leila Finucane

In this episode Neil and Will sit down with Leila Finucane the President and CEO of Victory Housing Inc., an award winning non-profit affordable housing developer in the D.C. area.  An expert in the affordable housing and community development space, she explains just how affordable housing is defined and what solutions are being recommended to curb the crisis.  Take a listen as she provides a unique urban connection to Appalachia as it relates to affordable housing and what similarities there actually are.  She also explains her own personal connections to the Appalachian region.  You might even hear Neil rant about the "American Dream" - or how close Appalachia Meets World is to winning a Grammy!  Don't forget the #AppBiz(s) of the week: Engle's Drive In (first repeat #AppBiz); and Frontier Housing!
