Institute for Community Economics- ICE

In the 1960s, ICE's founders developed the Community Land Trust (CLT) concept as a way to encourage affordable resident ownership of housing and local control of land and other resources.

For more than three decades, ICE has promoted public understanding and acceptance of this approach to ownership and helped local groups establish CLTs.
