The National Public Housing Museum (NPHM), opened the weekend of April 4 in the last remaining building of the former Jane Addams Homes. The only cultural institution devoted to telling the story of public housing in the United States, NPHM has a mission to preserve, promote and propel the right of all people to a place where they can live and prosper – a place to call home. As a member of the International Coalition of Sites of Conscience, NPHM is one of 370 venues in 65 nations committed to telling difficult and complicated stories, preserving history and imagining a more just future.
