the Forum, new information will be presented about the Partnership for
Sustainable Communities, announced on June 16, 2009 by the USDOT, the U.S.
Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) and the U.S. Environmental

in all communities – rural, suburban and urban – gain better access to
affordable housing, more transportation options, and lower transportation
costs. The three agencies will work together to ensure that these housing and
transportation goals are met while simultaneously protecting the environment,
promoting equitable development, and helping to address the challenges of
climate change.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
