Racist housing, zoning and land use policies

Our country’s history of racist land use, zoning and housing policies have resulted in growing homelessness; under-funded public housing; housing segregation; limited home ownership that puts renters at the mercy of rapidly increasing rents; gentrification and displacement; and affordable housing that has only been built in toxic, low-opportunity areas that are now also at risk for climate-related disasters.

To address these failed systems that perpetuate housing instability and homelessness we are investing policies, tools and practices that will advance more just and equitable housing opportunities for Black, Indigenous and Latino/a/x people with extremely low incomes.
