Fair Rents, Fair Bills: Understanding Rent & Utility Regulations

JOIN US VIRTUALLY ON MONDAY, NOVEMBER 17TH 12PM

Join us for a learning session about San José’s Rent Stabilization Program and possible updates to the city’s rules on how utilities are billed in rental housing (known as Ratio Utility Billing Services, or RUBS).

We’ll break down:

  • What rent stabilization means
  • How RUBS works
  • And what these proposed changes could mean for renters and housing providers

You’ll also learn how to share your feedback and get involved as the city considers these updates and how it can impact you.

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,

Regina Celestin Williams
