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 100% affordable project proposed by Pacific West Communities, originally approved for 94 new affordable homes for low-income residents, has been amended to request approval for 194 affordable units!

Located in the Alum Rock Urban Village, this development will assist the City in reaching its target of 25% affordability across the Urban Village Plan Area. The site is located on the VTA 23 bus line and just a 5-minute walk from the 22, 522, and 77 lines. Future residents will also benefit from access to regional transit via the coming Alum Rock / 28th St. BART station. The surrounding neighborhood has a variety of restaurants and shops, providing easy access to amenities within walking distance for future residents.

This housing development will soften San Jose’s housing crisis by providing deep levels of affordability for families, with home affordability ranging from 40% to 80%  of the Area Median Income (AMI) and a large proportion of 2 bedroom units.

Join SV@Home in telling the City Council that you support this opportunity for 194 new affordable homes in San Jose!
