Event Description
Updating an older home means balancing the aesthetic with the practical. An energy retrofit and historic rehab can go hand-in-hand, with some costs contained by knowing about available historic preservation and energy tax credits. The results can be a low-cost-to maintain home combining the best of the old and the new. This workshop showcases one local rehab, The James L. Bassett House at 13 Lewis Street, a project of Corey Stone and Nancy Greenberg of Verdigris Ventures. It will cover:
• The historic preservation tax credit program
• The programs available for financing energy efficiency
• The energy efficiency features of the house
• What could be preserved, what needed to be replaced, and other solutions that are worth a try
This program is presented as a collaboration between NHPT, the Livable City Initiative and the New Haven Free Public Library.

Laying the Cash Tracks for Community Impact
LISC CFO Christina Travers is among the impact investing leaders who contributed commentaries to a new book, The Social Justice Investor, and joined a panel discussion at today’s book launch. In her essay, “Laying the Cash Tracks,” (reprinted here) she explains the evolution of LISC’s capital markets experience—noting how discouraging Wall Street conversations eventually led to transformative, community-focused investments.Sharing the Story of Social Justice Investing
With the launch of the new book, The Social Justice Investor, LISC’s Christina Travers reflects on the ways that CDFIs have tapped the capital markets to deepen their impact—working to upend lingering misconceptions among some investors. "Whether we are financing affordable housing, small businesses, health, safety, climate resilience, racial equity or jobs, we see financial performance and local impact as part of the same whole."EPA Awards GRID Alternatives Solar for All Grant
LISC partner GRID Alternatives has been awarded a $249,800,000 Solar for All grant from the EPA to advance renewable and clean energy sources for affordable housing communities across the country. “The grant is an incredible boon to the movement to decarbonize homes and lower energy costs that burden millions of everyday Americans,” said Michael T. Pugh, president and CEO of LISC.
