The Madison Area Community Land Trust (MACLT) is a 501(c)(3) non profit organization that has been taking land off of the speculative market for current and future generations in Madison, Wisconsin, since 1991.Our organization was founded by nonprofit leaders and stakeholders seeking to promote affordable housing for first time home buyers at or below 80% of median income in the Madison and Dane County area. Housing prices in the Madison area have risen beyond the means of moderately-low income people: the median price of a home in Madison jumped from $83,000 in 1991 to $205,000 in 2005, and over $300,000 in 2020, while wages have stagnated.Buying a home through MACLT saves homebuyers 30% on average, or $56,000!Under the community land trust (CLT) model, homeowners purchase their house, but not the land (this lowers the purchase price). The land is leased by the homeowner from the land trust. When MACLT homeowners sell their home, 75% of the appreciated value stays with the house, so it’s more affordable for the next buyer. The CLT homeowner also gets to keep the equity they invested into the home plus 25% of the increase in value.

The Moving On workshops include five training sessions where participants and their families/teams create their own Individualized Moving On Plan (iMop). The workshops are designed to focus on concrete, practical information that can educate participants and families and creatively address barriers to moving on. Each workshop series includes a pre-session phone call, where information is gathered from each family to allow the LOV Inc. facilitators to customize the materials and sessions based on the participants. Three of the workshops include virtual training for the participants separate from their family members.
