Getting Inclusionary Housing Right

JOIN US VIRTUALLY ON FRIDAY, OCTOBER 24TH 12PM

Cities across Santa Clara County are considering this powerful tool to build more new affordable homes without subsidy.

But done wrong it can fall short, or even stop the development of new homes in its tracks. Learn how it works, and how to get it right!

Many of our local cities are joining forces right now in a shared nexus study, the wonky and in-depth analysis that assesses the feasibility of local residential development and the potential for developers of market-rate housing to add a share of affordable homes to their buildings.

If cities require too few affordable homes or affordability that’s too shallow, they leave public benefits on the table. Too much, and developers can’t build any housing at all.

Come hear about local cities that are getting it right: successfully using inclusionary housing policies to achieve mixed-income communities, generate funding to subsidize deeper levels of affordability, and gain valuable land for affordable homes!

The Women’s Leadership Build has always been about more than just what we build on a construction site. It’s been about what we build off the construction site – relationships with each other, foundations for families to thrive for generations, and a lasting impact on Habitat’s mission to build homes, community, and hope.

While we may not be building side-by-side, we can still show strength in numbers and the power of women to keep Habitat building forward.

By signing up today, you’ll receive our Virtual Build email series – a four-week run of emailed episodes that will bring home what our support means to families and communities. Although you won’t be on the construction site, you’ll experience the concrete impact you can make through videos, photos, and firsthand stories.

We may be apart during this crisis, but through the Virtual Build, we can come together. And together, we will build.
