02 — Consulting & Technical Assistance
Getting communities from housing idea to action.
Through CHFA’s Small-Scale Housing Technical Assistance program and direct engagements, we help towns, school districts, tribes and nonprofits test sites, shape concepts and build a realistic funding path. Every concept is drawn by people who understand how it gets built.
Every dot is a Colorado community where ThroughLine has delivered CHFA small-scale housing technical assistance. Labeled towns are featured below.
