WHAT IS A COMMUNITY LAND TRUST?ABOUT THE INDIANAPOLIS CLTThe Indianapolis Community Land Trust (CLT) will work to equip Black, Brown and low-income Indy residents to use land and housing to build community wealth, self-reliance and self-determination, inclusive of creating permanently affordable housing. Indy CLT is being started by the Kheprw Institute with support from partners and residents from around the city who are a part of the Homes for All Indy coalition. We began CLT organizing in 2019 and in 2021 the City of Indianapolis allocated $1.5 million of its American Rescue Plan Act funds to support CLT startup and pilot projects which are anticipated for summer 2023.
