Self-Paced
ANHD has a growing set of learning tools structured as modules to access at your own pace and build skills related to community development.
Land Use Toolkit
The Land Use Toolkit offers a roadmap for creating community land use principles: a set of benchmarks that clearly lays out a community’s needs and which types of land use, development, and capital investment proposals would best meet them.
This interactive learning tool seeks to lay out an approach to local land use planning that places these communities in a proactive position: using data, an equity framing, and community crafted solutions to enable them to more effectively respond to proposals from private developers and the City, as well as advance their own plans for addressing community needs based on a collective vision.
Equitable Development Data Explorer (EDDE) Modules
The Equitable Development Data Explorer (EDDE) was created to support the advancement of the City’s fair housing and equitable development. The EDDE analyzes the demographic, social, economic, and housing conditions of every community in NYC.
In these video modules, we use the case study of Jackson Heights, a neighborhood in northern Queens to walk through the Equitable Development Data Explorer’s (EDDE) Community Data view and Displacement Risk Map (DRM).

Bank Organizing Toolkit
ANHD’s Bank Organizing Toolkit is a guide to engaging banks and other financial institutions that lend to bad actor landlords. The toolkit provides case studies of past campaigns involving banks, as well as tactics and resources for tenant leaders, organizers, and advocates to engage loan holders and win improvements.
