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

California requires all cities and counties to develop plans to meet their communities’ housing needs. These plans, known as housing elements, must be updated every five to eight years. This year, the City and County of San Francisco launched its housing element update and is planning to submit it to California’s Department of Housing and Community Development in 2022. In addition to addressing the housing needs of all San Franciscans, the revised housing element will prioritize residents’ housing preferences, racial and social equity goals, neighborhood resiliency and more. Come learn about the role of housing elements in developing equitable housing strategies in San Francisco, as well as across the state.
