History
In 1970 the Department of Local Affairs sought the creation of the Colorado Division of Housing, successfully doing so. This newly formed agency was placed in charge of housing, mainly known for its attempts to deal with homelessness. This agency would form several offices to help deal with specific areas the division deals with. This division is also notable for findings one of the most recent being the Affordable Housing Investment Fund (2024).{{Cite web |title=Affordable Housing Investment Fund {{!}} Division of Housing |url=https://doh.colorado.gov/affordable-housing-investment-fund |access-date=2024-11-21 |website=doh.colorado.gov}} The Department of Local Affairs (DOLA) has been heavily funding the Colorado Division of Housing.{{Cite web |title=Division of Housing {{!}} Colorado Department of Local Affairs |url=https://cdola.colorado.gov/category/division-of-housing#:~:text=The%20Department%20of%20Local%20Affairs%20(DOLA),%20through%20the,effort%20to%20make%20housing%20more%20affordable%20for%20Coloradans. |access-date=2024-11-21 |website=cdola.colorado.gov}}
