The Housing Needs of Undocumented Residents

JOIN US VIRTUALLY ON FRIDAY, JULY 25TH 12PM

Undocumented immigrants face unique and often invisible barriers to housing—exclusion from federal programs, fear of retaliation, and discriminatory screening practices.

Join us for a timely conversation on how we can break down these barriers and advance housing solutions that include everyone—regardless of immigration status.

We’ll explore:
– Why undocumented immigrants are excluded from key housing programs
– How fear and discrimination drive housing instability
– Local policies and community-based models creating real change

This event is hosted by Housing Choices as part of Affordable Housing Month 2021. 

Housing Choices will facilitate a panel of people of color with disabilities who will invite you into their homes and tell you their housing story. Their lived experience will deepen your understanding of the reality behind the data showing that in San Mateo County when a person experiences the intersectional discriminatory policies and practices against both People of Color and people with disabilities, already significant housing disparities are made worse. Learn how people of color with disabilities are organizing and speaking up to address the impact of high rent, discrimination, segregation, overcrowding, unhealthy housing conditions and displacement. Listen, learn and recharge your passion for affordable housing that is truly inclusive of people of all races, incomes, and abilities.
