2021-11-30 12:00 - 13:00 | Virtual, TX, United States
As the affordable housing crisis continues to debilitate San Antonio, emerging new financial resources are crucial to fill the gap to meet the need.
The Opportunity Home San Antonio (Opportunity Home) invites you to a virtual power hour briefing on everything you need to know to understand the affordable housing options for families making less than 30% of the area median income, limited existing funding sources, funding challenges and how Opportunity Home moves the needle to increase public housing assistance and affordable housing for the most vulnerable in the city.
Together, we will discuss:

What is the difference between a public housing unit and a 30% unit?
What are the unique resident protections offered through public housing?
What are existing housing fund gaps to help more than 57,000 families in our city desperately waiting for affordable housing assistance?
How can we bring immediate housing relief within the next 12 months?
