Housing on Our Mind
The lack of affordable housing in Teton County affects everyone and the environment. Join Teton Dems and Shelter JH to learn about local efforts to address this issue AND how to effectively communicate with our local and state elected officials Wednesday, Nov. 15th, 5:30pm at Code Red Restaurant.
There are a plethora of crucial issues before the legislature in its upcoming budget session (Feb. 12 - March 8, 2024). It is incumbent upon all of us to make our voices heard. We will provide legislative updates throughout the session, with contact links. Quality of communication is as important as quantity.
Our joint event with Shelter JH will provide guidance, tools, and delicious refreshments. Spanish language translation and Child Care will be provided.
We support accessible, stable and dignified housing options for all economic and cultural groups, regardless of citizenship, and community-wide funding measures to make it possible.
