Getting Inclusionary Housing Right

JOIN US VIRTUALLY ON FRIDAY, OCTOBER 24TH 12PM

Cities across Santa Clara County are considering this powerful tool to build more new affordable homes without subsidy.

But done wrong it can fall short, or even stop the development of new homes in its tracks. Learn how it works, and how to get it right!

Many of our local cities are joining forces right now in a shared nexus study, the wonky and in-depth analysis that assesses the feasibility of local residential development and the potential for developers of market-rate housing to add a share of affordable homes to their buildings.

If cities require too few affordable homes or affordability that’s too shallow, they leave public benefits on the table. Too much, and developers can’t build any housing at all.

Come hear about local cities that are getting it right: successfully using inclusionary housing policies to achieve mixed-income communities, generate funding to subsidize deeper levels of affordability, and gain valuable land for affordable homes!

SV@Home Celebrates Juneteenth!

Share:
 

At SV@Home, we celebrate Juneteenth, remembering the enslavement of people of African descent in the United States and commemorating their emancipation.  And, we celebrate the strength, resilience, perseverance, and resolve of the African Ancestry community throughout history and today. 

 

While the official end of slavery in the United States was enacted over 150 years ago, SV@Home, as an affordable housing policy and advocacy organization still sees the need to work towards liberation in partnership with other community-serving and community-led organizations. We know the systems we work to demolish and reform are oppressive to Black, Indigenous and People of Color, and most harmful to people of African ancestry, which is the legacy of slavery and colonization.

 

So we encourage you to educate yourself on the history of slavery and the importance of Juneteenth to the African ancestry community, and we invite you to celebrate with us in Silicon Valley. Please check out this calendar of events.

 

In Solidarity,
