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

Hello YIMBYs!

A reminder that YIMBY happy hour is this Saturday, July 17 at 4pm at San Pedro Square Market in downtown San Jose. We hope you can join us! Bring your housing/zoning-curious friends!

We’ll meet at one of the tables in the seating area at the corner of San Pedro and W St John St – look for the bright blue old-timey truck and yellow umbrellas.

Multiple bus lines will get you to San Pedro. We recommend using the Transit app or VTA’s trip planner to find the best route for you. The closest bus stop is Santa Clara & Almaden Avenue. There is bike parking, and a bike share station as well. If you do need to drive, there is paid parking available in the Market & San Pedro Garage.

Please keep in mind that while California is no longer under a mask mandate, you should probably bring a mask just in case, and if you’re coming via public transit, you are still required to wear one. If you aren’t feeling well, please stay home – there will be more in-person events!

When:
July 17th
4:00PM - 6:00PM
Where:
San Pedro Square Market, 87 N. San Pedro St., San Jose
