January 12 – Building Housing Security During COVID-19 and Beyond
Join the Aspen Institute for a discussion about housing security solutions. Before COVID-19, over 100 million people across the United States were struggling to afford housing. The pandemic exacerbated people’s short-term housing challenges – putting almost 40 million people at risk of eviction by the end of 2020 and even more on a trajectory toward long-term financial insecurity. Housing leaders across the country have the tools and knowledge necessary to expand access to stable, safe, affordable housing in their communities. Everyone has a role to play, and the Aspen Institute Financial Security Program has compiled, for the first time, a guidebook of solutions for all housing stakeholders, from policymakers and community residents to business leaders, financial institutions, and philanthropy – prioritizing examples that have worked from communities around the country. The event will take place on Tuesday, January 12 at 1 p.m. EST. Click here to register.
