Leading to a sustainable future

CHUD’s mission is to provide leadership as a center of inquiry for the creation of sustainable housing and communities. Sustainable communities are those that feature vibrant economies, offer a choice of housing and transportation modes, are closer to jobs, schools, shopping and recreation, are less energy dependent, and/or help protect clean water and air.
