An Evening of Community and Dialogue

We believe that solutions are possible when we work together.  This is why we are bringing together people across the spectrum of sectors – community, nonprofit, education, business, and political – to have a generative conversation. Regardless of political ideology and experience, housing is a place where we can come together across our different thinking and move in the same direction toward a solution.
