Stable, affordable housing is essential to individual and family well-being, yet many are facing rising costs, limited availability, and barriers that put them at risk of housing insecurity or homelessness. In this presentation, we invite you to explore with us the current state of housing in our community. We’ll examine key challenges, including the affordability crisis, the growing number of families experiencing instability, and disparities in access to safe, sustainable housing—particularly among vulnerable populations. We will also highlight the resources available to support families in need, as well as the critical role community organizations and advocacy groups play in bridging the gaps. Housing affects us all. As more community members understand the challenges we face, we hope to inspire a broader network of advocates dedicated to ensuring everyone has access to safe and stable housing.
