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

San Jose: Council approves additional hearing for affordable housing

Share:

At its Tuesday meeting, the San Jose City Council took action to add an additional General Plan hearing each spring for affordable housing receiving public funding. Recognizing that affordable housing financing deadlines present unique challenges and that the City has met only 7% of its affordable housing goals in the current Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) cycle, Mayor Liccardo and Councilmember Davis proposed the additional hearing to reduce delays in approvals and enable more new homes to be constructed.

SV@Home supports all efforts to streamline the housing development process and appreciates the City’s leadership. See our letter to the Council here.
