Sappi and VSA Post Third Episode of ‘Off Register’ Satirical Video Series
For example, Jessica Helfand and Bill Drenttel from the Winterhouse Institute received a $30,000 “Ideas that Matter” grant to address the lack of affordable housing in the rural areas of Massachusetts, Connecticut and New York. Their project, completed in collaboration with Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation and HousingUs, used billboards and newspaper inserts in combination with bulk mailings to address the need for affordable housing. The project resulted in the first Incentive Housing Zone in Connecticut to proactively address the need for zoning that encourages affordable housing; a 2010 Communications Award from the Connecticut Chapter of the American Planning Association; and more than 12,500 visits to the foundation's website for HousingUs.
