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

AB 2011, the Affordable Housing and High Road Jobs Act of 2022 by Assembymember Buffy Wicks, allows residential development to proceed by right in commercial zones. Upon introduction, it quickly became the most high-profile housing production bill of the state legislative year. Come learn the backstory and genesis of this bold legislation directly from the author and sponsors, including how it was crafted to boost housing production in tandem with significant labor standards, protections and benefits and how the proponents overcame opposition by building support among legislators and creating a large statewide coalition of housing advocates, labor unions and urbanists.
