Become an Advocate
No matter what a person's income might be, finding an affordable place to live is our area is difficult. In fact, affordable housing is one of the three most critical problems facing our region. However, the importance of this fundamental issue is often marginalized by other “more popular” local concerns.
We are always looking for friends in the community willing to join us in activities that keep the issue of local housing and homelessness forefront in the minds of officials, decision makers, and people of influence. Some wonderful links to get started in housing advocacy follow:
