Where Did the Students Go? Housing & the School Enrollment Crisis

JOIN US VIRTUALLY ON FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 26TH 12PM

Silicon Valley is becoming too expensive for families and our schools are paying the price. Enrollment is dropping, campuses are closing, and beloved school communities are being torn apart.

At the same time, teachers and staff face grueling commutes from far-away cities, while districts struggle to hire and keep the talent our kids deserve.

Join us for an inside look at SV@Home’s exclusive research on Silicon Valley’s enrollment crisis—and discover how affordable housing can keep families in our neighborhoods and strengthen schools across our region.

RSVP now and join the conversation.

RSVP for September PIA: Emergency Shelter, Interim and Permanent Housing for San Jose’s Unhoused

SV@Home Presents September 2022 Policy In Action: Shelter, Interim, and Permanent Housing Solutions to the Needs of the Unhoused in San Jose

Join us Sept. 23 at noon for our monthly Policy In Action @Home series to learn more about the spectrum of housing solutions addressing the needs of unhoused community members in San Jose.

Emergency shelters, interim housing, and permanent supportive housing each play an important role in meeting the needs of community members who are unhoused. As the City of San Jose looks to expand the use of individual “tiny homes” as a solution, we examine how each of these solutions meets critical community needs, and why we can’t forget that we know what works – housing ends homelessness.

 

Featured Speakers:

  • David Low, Director of Policy and Communications, Destination: Home
  • Ragan Henninger, Deputy Director, City of San Jose Housing Department

 

SV@Home’s Policy in Action @ Home series (PIA, formerly the Housing Action Coalition or HAC) is a monthly, informal brownbag discussion convening Housers to engage on hot housing topics. Every month, we select a topic or current event, bring in an expert to give a brief presentation, and then open up the discussion to ask questions, float new ideas, and identify potential areas for shared action.
 

Become a member today and help us expand the coalition of housing advocates to be more inclusive and representative of the communities we serve.
