Social Housing National Day of Action!
From Shelterforce – DETROIT—Residents and advocates testified before Detroit City Council during the public comment period at the Committee of the Whole meeting May 20, as part of the National Day of Action on Housing, advocating for community-controlled housing policies that ensure safe, stable, and affordable homes for all. “We’re calling for permanent affordability through social housing — a model that centers people, not profit,” said Kea Mathis a lead organizer with Detroit People’s Platform.
