| | 🏘️ May Is Affordable Housing Month! |
| |
|
| Affordable Housing Month kicks off today! This month is all about celebrating and uplifting our affordable housing movement and the possibilities that affordable housing solutions bring to our neighbors and communities. This year we’re exploring the theme, “Our Future Begins with Home”, because we know that a thriving Bay Area begins with everyone having a safe, stable, and affordable place to call home. Building on prior years’ momentum, NPH is bringing in new audiences to join us in writing a new future for the Bay Area through partnerships with the Oakland Roots Soccer Club, movie theaters, 5 Bay Area county library branches, and more to come throughout May. Join Us! 🤝 - 🗣️ Spread the word and amplify AHM messaging with our social media toolkit, which includes sample copy, social media graphics, and more!
- ✍️ Share our petition! Invite your networks to join Begins with Home, a movement of neighbors and advocates who believe that everyone deserves to have a roof over their head.
- 📹 Share the AHM Video Share our inspiring video on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok that shows what Begins with Home is solving for and how we’re doing it.
- 🌆 Attend a Local Event Throughout May, housing advocates and allies across the Bay Area are joining together through a series of in-person and virtual events including interactive discussions, trainings, art shows, and more!

| | 🏗️ Affordable Housing Legislation Advances! |
| |
|
|
|
| Last week, AB 2728 (Gabriel) passed out of the Assembly Local Government committee! AB 2728 is an amendment to SB 4(Wiener) that will make it easier to build affordable homes on land owned by faith organizations. The bill now heads to Appropriations and then off to the Assembly Floor. Your letter of support can help us get this bill to the finish line. Help us make the case for more affordable homes by sending in your support letters for AB 2728. Submit an organizational support letter to the California Legislature today! |
