Local organization asks Texas law makers for $5 billion to fund more affordable housing
“‘We don’t see tent cities under the expressway, or tents at Washington park full of tents, that doesn’t mean that they don’t exist,’ said Zoraima Diaz-Penida, Director of Policy Innovation at the affordable housing organization, Come Dream. Come Build (CDCB).
Diaz said homelessness exists in the Rio Grande Valley, though it goes mostly unnoticed because many who cannot afford their own housing live with other family members.”
