Funder Webinar: Intersections for Justice: Social Housing Primer

Join us for an engaging Funder Learning Session on September 25 on social housing, co-hosted by Common Counsel Foundation’s Fund for an Inclusive California, Housing NOW! California, the Alliance for Housing Justice, and the California Green New Deal Coalition. 

Social housing efforts are taking root in California, offering an innovative and intersectional approach to address the overlapping economic, climate, and housing challenges facing communities of color and low-income Californians. 

In this session we are taking a multidimensional look at how social housing intersects with broader justice issues. We will share learning and expand on case studies shared in Housing NOW! California’s recent report, Building Our Future, Grassroots reflections on social housing.

Join us to hear from leaders at the frontlines of innovative solutions across California and learn how they are leading grassroots and legislative campaigns to drive long-term systemic change. 

Our aim is to create a powerful and insightful gathering of movement leaders, practitioners, and funders exploring the opportunities at the intersection of housing efforts and critical issues in the state such as climate, immigrant rights, and economic justice.

We are curating a unique space for a diverse range of funders who are interested in learning more about the range of solutions that social housing encompasses.

This is an opportunity to learn from leaders advancing amazing work happening right now, and to contribute to a future where safe, affordable homes in thriving communities is a reality for all residents.
