The authors of this report assess whether the initiative achieved its goals and identify lessons learned about effective preservation practices. In doing so, they also provide a summary of the evolution of practices in preserving affordable rental housing, discuss challenges and opportunities for preservation going forward, and identify lessons learned that may help other philanthropies in their own philanthropic initiatives, even if they do not pertain to housing. The authors find that the MacArthur Foundation met most of its goals for Window of Opportunity. As the initiative nears its end, large nonprofit preservation developers/owners have greater financial capacity and reputation, there are more resources and vehicles for preservation, and, to a lesser degree, the policy environment has changed to the benefit of preservation. However, Window of Opportunity has not achieved its most ambitious federal policy goals and is likely to fall short of its target for the number of privately owned affordable rental housing that will be preserved"--Back cover. 606 $aRental housing$zUnited States 606 $aLow-income housing$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$2fast 615 0$aRental housing 615 0$aLow-income housing 676 $a333.540973 700 $aSchwartz$b Heather L.$01241403 702 $aSchwartz$b Heather L. 712 02$aRand Corporation, 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910220084703321 996 $aPreservation of affordable rental housing$92892052 997 $aUNINA
