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!

Hosted by StandUp For Kids 

There are currently over 2500 homeless youth living in Silicon Valley. StandUp for Kids is a 100% volunteer-led nonprofit supporting Silicon Valley’s most vulnerable population and working to end the cycle of youth homelessness one life at a time. Please join volunteers at their outreach center, The Village, for a fun-filled night learning about our mission, youth stories, and the history of our program. Take a tour of our center while you enjoy delicious appetizers and drinks!

The Village is currently open 5 days a week serving youth and young adults between the ages of 12-24 living on the streets. It is a safe place where youth can access resources, meet basic needs, talk with caring adults, and build a better future. StandUp For Kids provides 1:1 mentoring, educational programs and referrals, and leads street outreach to connect with those who need them most. Come learn about how many ways you can be a hero to homeless youth!

You must have a ticket for the event as space is limited.
