In 2017, Silicon Valley Community Foundation launched its first “On The Table,” bringing together approximately 7,000 residents at nearly 800 conversations to talk about our regional housing challenges in the Bay Area. Last year we got the housing conversation started, this year is the time to discuss solutions. Come find like-minded people, bring your lunch — we’ll provide beverages and dessert — and join SPUR, SV@Home, and Habitat for Humanity East Bay/Silicon Valley in conversation as we work to make new connections between people of different backgrounds and from different communities to identify shared solutions. Co-presented by SV@Home and Habitat for Humanity East Bay/Silicon Valley.
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
