The New Mexico Housing Plan is a statewide effort to develop practical, evidence-informed recommendations that maintain and expand access to safe, stable, and affordable housing for all New Mexicans. We need your help! 

This plan is being developed through a combination of community engagement, stakeholder collaboration, and data-driven research. Throughout the process, we are gathering ideas and experiences through surveys, interviews, focus groups, and conversations with housing providers, local governments, tribal communities, service organizations, developers, advocates, and residents across New Mexico. We are also reviewing existing research and housing data to ensure that community priorities are supported by the best available evidence.
