Welcome to Wisconsin Council for Affordable and Rural Housing
Dedicated to the advocacy of rural and affordable housing throughout the great state of Wisconsin
What we Do
The Wisconsin Council for Affordable and Rural Housing (WI-CARH) was established in 1999 as a state chapter of the Council for Affordable and Rural Housing, a national not for profit organization dedicated to the advocacy of rural and affordable housing throughout the United States of America.
As the Wisconsin chapter, we take great pride in our state. The continuing changes in funding, regulations and general real estate market conditions require all real estate and housing professionals stay educated and informed on current conditions.
At WI-CARH, we bring together, through seminars, training programs and our annual conference, national and state experts in the affordable and rural housing areas. Please join us at one of our events or contact our organization for more details on how to become a member.
