    RAD Hits $20 Billion:
    Letter from the Director

    Dear Friends,

    The Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) program recently hit another milestone – $20 billion in total construction investment. To celebrate this occasion, I’m sharing a video that features residents of RAD conversions. The residents speak to how their lives have been improved for the better and how happy they are with their new homes. We hope you will watch the video in celebration of this milestone.

    Read the full letter.
