About the Terwilliger Center
The ULI Terwilliger Center for Housing utilizes a multifaceted approach of research, publications, convening, and technical assistance to facilitate creating and sustaining a full spectrum of housing opportunities—including affordable and workforce housing—in communities across the country.

Established in 2007 by J. Ronald Terwilliger, former chairman of Trammell Crow Residential, the Center’s original mission was to expand housing opportunities for working families defined as housing affordable to families earning 60 to 120 percent of the area median income.

While the Center’s primary focus remains on housing affordability, with a particular emphasis on workforce housing policies and projects, we have expanded our mission to include a broader range of housing issues. This expanded focus will help to integrate ULI’s many housing efforts into a coherent program of work that furthers the development of mixed income, mixed-use communities and a full spectrum of housing affordable to all, a critical aspect of ULI’s core mission of the “responsible use of land.”
National Advisory Board
The Terwilliger Center National Advisory Board, led by J. Ronald Terwilliger, provides strategic direction and ongoing program guidance. The National Advisory Board is comprised of top housing policy, business and political leaders from across the country, including representatives from ULI’s leadership.
