Many communities across America are experiencing housing shortages, especially shortages of affordable housing. Tackling this challenge requires a multi-pronged effort, of which rehabilitation of historic buildings is a critically important component.

The ACHP supports federal policies and programs that promote use of historic properties to revitalize local communities.

From its earliest days, the ACHP addressed Native American historic preservation issues in Section 106 reviews and has, over time, recognized and increased the role of Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiians in its implementation of the Section 106 review process. Many would, undoubtedly, view this progress as slow and arduous; admittedly, it is a reflection of the times and society in which it has functioned.

Welcome to the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's (ACHP) Guidance on Section 106 agreement documents. Section 106 agreement documents play a critical role in documenting a federal agency's commitment to carry out and conclude their responsibilities under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) (54 U.S.C. § 306108). This guidance is provided to assist federal agencies, states, Indian tribes, Native Hawaiian organizations, applicants, local governments, consulting parties, and the public in developing, implementing, and concluding such agreements.

On January 29, 2025, President Trump issued an executive order addressing the upcoming 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States, as well as the creation and protection of public monuments.
