Providing more affordable housing is a crucial part of the ADU program. The Chicago Low Income Housing Trust Fund (CLIHTF) has set aside units that can be placed in ADUs.

CLIHTF units provide benefits both to the owner of the property and the tenant, by guaranteeing regular payments to the owner and providing more deeply subsidized rents to the tenant.
