LISC Brings “Heirs' Property” Relief to Under-Resourced Communities in Cincinnati and Cleveland

Heirs' property issues have long been a leading cause of involuntary land loss, particularly among Black families. With a new $750,000 multiyear grant from the U.S. Bank Foundation Opportunity Fund, LISC will work with community-based organizations in Cincinnati and Cleveland to provide families with estate planning, legal support and financial counseling that can help clear up clouded property titles and preserve homes for future generations.

Cleveland Housing Investment Fund Launches with Initial $38M Commitment to Support Equitable, Affordable Housing

LISC Fund Management has teamed up with the City of Cleveland and KeyBank to launch a new affordable housing investment fund, with authorizing legislation approved last night by the Cleveland City Council. The fund ultimately seeks to invest $100 million to fuel quality affordable housing across the city, with a focus on serving underrepresented communities and stimulating growth.

A Look Forward, From 20 Years of Impact Investing

Broadstreet CEO Kevin Boes reflects on 20 years of the LISC affiliate's work as a New Market Tax Credit syndicator. From managing $3.5 billion in impact portfolios to partnering with local leaders, Broadstreet (formerly New Markets Support Corp) has focused on driving meaningful change in disinvested communities. Looking ahead, Boes reiterates their commitment to scaling impact and creating just, healthy, and prosperous communities.
