Denice Wint on NPR: What Federal Cuts Mean for Affordable Housing
April 17, 2026
NPR's Here & Now recently featured Denice Wint, EAH Housing's Vice President of Real Estate Development, in a 19-minute segment examining how proposed federal cuts to rental assistance could stall affordable housing development nationwide.
The interview spotlighted what is at stake for families across the country and underscored the critical role federal funding plays in ensuring communities can access safe, stable, affordable homes.
President Trump has proposed scaling back federal funding for low-income renters as part of his budget for the next fiscal year. Developers are already responding by scaling back projects that rent to people who depend on that aid to pay their rent.
Denice Wint explained the cascading impact these cuts could have on affordable housing development and the families who rely on rental assistance to maintain stable housing.
