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

VTA invites you to participate in the second community meeting for the proposed Gilroy Transit Center Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) located at VTA’s Gilroy Transit Center. The property is adjacent to the Gilroy Caltrain Station on Monterey Highway between 7th Street and 9th Street in Gilroy.

In February 2021, VTA held two community meetings to discuss the community’s vision for the site. Based on the input we received at those meetings, VTA prepared some conceptual designs.

VTA wants to continue this community dialogue, hear your feedback, and listen to your ideas on the conceptual designs. We are inviting you to attend our next meeting on Thursday, April 22st at 6PM.

The meeting will be conducted simultaneously in Spanish and English. Individuals who require other language translation are requested to contact VTA Community Outreach at (408) 321-7575/TTY (408) 321-2330, or email community.outreach@vta.org, by April 15, 2021.

Visit www.vta.org/gilroydevelopment for additional project information, including links to videos of the February meeting recordings, and to sign up for project updates.

We look forward to your continued participation. If you missed the first meeting, we encourage you to begin participating.
