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.

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.
