Our impact
Through advocacy, leadership development, communications, and public education, we create the environment — the public support, the data and research, the technical capacity, and the funding resources — that enable affordable housing and housing justice in Silicon Valley. Our work has supported the development of tens of thousands of affordable homes, with more in the pipeline. The policies we’ve advanced across Santa Clara County have helped additional tens of thousands of families stay in their homes.

Together, we’re created a roadmap for our work at SV@Home that truly reflects the voices and needs of those we support. Starting in late 2023, we engaged over 60 stakeholders through dozens of individual interviews, four focus group meetings, and an online survey.
