Supporting diversity, equity, and inclusion in housing for Black and Brown families

“There can be no fairness or justice in a society in which some live in homelessness, or in the shadow of that risk, while others cannot even imagine it.”

— Jordan Flaherty

Importance of Housing Accessibility

  • Improved living conditions

    Accessible housing can improve the living conditions of economically and socially disadvantaged communities by providing safe and healthy living environments. This can lead to better physical and mental health outcomes for residents.

  • Economic empowerment

    By providing affordable and accessible housing options, economically and socially disadvantaged communities can be empowered to invest in their future and build financial stability. This can lead to increased economic opportunities and decreased poverty levels.

  • Social inclusion

    Accessible housing can promote social inclusion by providing equal access to housing for people of all abilities and incomes. This can help to build more diverse and inclusive communities and decrease stigma and discrimination.
