Incremental Development Alliance
Fayetteville, AR
“The Ivory Prize would propel IncDev's successful approach of training over 8,000 small developers since 2015, helping us reach more communities and expand our curriculum, including enhancements such as Spanish-language materials or municipal leadership programs. This support would allow us to grow our model where local developers—many from historically underserved communities—create housing solutions that build neighborhood wealth, turning our decade of tested, incremental approaches into broader systemic change.”
Allison Thurmond Quinlan | Board Member & Senior Faculty
The Incremental Development Alliance trains small-scale developers and community partners to create naturally occurring affordable housing through workshops and mentorship, fostering neighborhood revitalization and local wealth-building.
