California Community Reinvestment Corporation’s President & CEO Tia Boatman Patterson was honored to sit down with Affordable Housing Finance’s Donna Kimura to discuss her career and the organization’s upcoming work throughout 2025. With a career spanning the public and private sectors as well as work in the California State Assembly and White House, Boatman Patterson is uniquely equipped to navigate the multiple converging spheres of housing finance. Boatman Patterson has led CCRC since 2022 and was honored at the 2024 Housing Visionary Awards for her diligent work in the affordable housing industry.
Patterson’s interview with Kimura also touches on the devastating California fires which affected communities local to CCRC’s Glendale office. While none of CCRC’s financed properties experienced long-term damage as a result of this disaster, the loss of any housing in California’s already-scarce market is cause for concern. As Boatman Patterson says, “At CCRC, we are committed to supporting the rebuilding efforts, ensuring that new housing developments in affected areas prioritize both affordability and resilience.”
