We're in the final stretch of the 2026 Legislative Session. We urgently need your help to get this bill on the schedule in the House!

"Faith-Based Affordable Housing" allows faith-based institutions in Rhode Island to fulfill their mission and meet community needs by building affordable housing. This bill would remove barriers and make it easier for affordable homes to be built.

This Bill Will:

• Allow faith-based institutions to build affordable housing with property they own

• Creates a streamlined approval process for affordable housing development on faith-based institutional land

• Aligns with the state and federal low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) rules and regulations
