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

The Housing Department is hosting a meeting to provide information and gather your feedback on the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance.

On November 5, 2019, the City Council approved changes, in concept, to the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance and asked City Staff to do additional analysis on a few outstanding items. The Housing Department is working to:
• Finalize a draft of the updated ordinance, and develop a new program to incentivize density for small projects from 5 to 19 units,
• Extend the period of affordability, and
• Encourage innovative partnerships by exploring the minimum contribution for market-rate developers to off-site affordable developments.
City staff intends to bring the updated ordinance to the Housing and Community Development Commission in August, and City Council this fall.

This webinar is for our development community and anyone who would like to learn more about the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance.

If you have questions, please contact Tina Vo at tina.vo@sanjoseca.gov.
