Where Did the Students Go? Housing & the School Enrollment Crisis

JOIN US VIRTUALLY ON FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 26TH 12PM

Silicon Valley is becoming too expensive for families and our schools are paying the price. Enrollment is dropping, campuses are closing, and beloved school communities are being torn apart.

At the same time, teachers and staff face grueling commutes from far-away cities, while districts struggle to hire and keep the talent our kids deserve.

Join us for an inside look at SV@Home’s exclusive research on Silicon Valley’s enrollment crisis—and discover how affordable housing can keep families in our neighborhoods and strengthen schools across our region.

RSVP now and join the conversation.

About this Event

Thinking about building a second unit for your aging parents or adult children? Thinking about getting extra income from your home? Thinking about renting a place closer to work? Heard about ADUs (Accessory Dwelling Unit, aka “Granny flat”) but wonder how you could add one in your back yard?

Come and join Palo Alto Forward’s 3rd annual ADU Workshop where a panel of renowned local architects- Judith Wasserman, Phoebe Bressack, and Jessica Resmini will be at hand to share their ADU stories and experience. We will walk you through the steps of creating/converting an ADU and share successes and pitfalls to avoid.

This workshop is designed to help homeowners explore ADU opportunities and navigate the process. Not a homeowner? No problem. Come and hear what’s brewing in the rental pipelines.

Light refreshments will be provided.
