NLIHC Welcomes New Research Intern Alex Mears

NLIHC is pleased to welcome Alex Mears as a research intern for the fall semester.

Alex is a second-year graduate student at Georgetown University pursuing a Master of Public Policy with a focus on community development and energy policy. Before his time at Georgetown, he completed an AmeriCorps VISTA term at the New York City Human Resources Administration where he worked on financial counseling and workforce development services for cash-welfare recipients and youth in underprivileged communities. Alex has also completed internships in TV media and government relations. Recent coursework at Georgetown ignited his interest in affordable housing, and after graduate school he hopes to work on sustainable community development that simultaneously addresses the lack of affordable housing and reduces communities’ carbon footprint. At NLIHC Alex will be working on updating the Coalition’s Rental Housing Programs Database.

Alex is pleased to join NLIHC in its efforts to achieve fair, equitable, and affordable housing.

Please join us in welcoming Alex to the NLHIC team.
