Housing is a bipartisan issue. Investments in housing resources and housing supply help grow our housing stock to include more stable, affordable homes for all. habitat.org/costofhome/act-n…

This Juneteenth, we reflect on how the legacy of slavery still impacts all aspects of Black Americans' lives, including housing. With our Advancing Black Homeownership program, we hope to reverse the results from years of discriminatory housing policies. habitat.org/our-work/advanci….

We're advocating for policies that will help millions gain or improve decent access to housing. The #CostOfHome solutions aim to: ✔️Increase supply and preservation of affordable homes ✔️Equitably increase access to credit ✔️Optimize land use ✔️Foster communities of opportunity.

"Both [Habitat for Humanity and @nardotrealtor] release the energy of individuals on the problem of how to stabilize home life and support their families.” Thank you to all the California leaders who came out yesterday to support affordable homeownership! teapawt.net/sachabitat/status/1511…
So grateful to Assemblymember @KenCooley for speaking out on the importance of affordable homeownership opportunities for working families – and for backing Habitat for Humanity’s bid to secure proper funding to build homes and extend the promise of ownership to more Californians

We need everyone to say YIMBY to in order to create equity, slow inflation and build community.
The YIMBY movement—short for “yes in my backyard”—has gone mainstream in states such as California, where proponents say new construction is key to fixing housing affordability and homelessness on.wsj.com/3OolPGQ

Today, as we virtually head to Capitol Hill, we will be the voice that leaders cannot ignore as we explain how foundational housing is to strong families and communities! We will advocate for housing issues and further emphasize the need for equity in housing. #HabitatontheHill

More than 500 advocates are meeting virtually today with their Congress members to urge support for policies that would make the #CostOfHome affordable for all: programs like CRRF, SHOP, HOME & USDA 502 that help @Habitat_org affiliates serve their communities. #HabitatontheHill

Through #CostOfHome, we’ve increased access to home affordability for 5.9 million people. But there’s still more work to be done. We’re advocating for programs like the Community Restoration and Revitalization Fund that will help build a more equitable future. #HabitatontheHill
