Today, we own 83 housing units in Madison, WI and house nearly 200 people throughout Dane County in our properties and in private rental housing.

Incoming Executive Director Bradley Hinkfuss is new to Housing Initiatives but by no means new to the issues of homelessness and affordable housing. His background in affordable housing started in the obscure niche of self-help housing construction while serving in the US Peace Corps in Tunisia in the ’90s, followed by downtown redevelopment work in Illinois, and then by almost 20 years of work with the non-profit housing and shelter providers in Madison. Meet Brad in person at HII's Legacy Party on Nov. 28th, 5-7 at Goodman's new Brassworks Facility. Details here: http://housinginit.org/about-us/events/
