Habitat NCC staff will meet with other home affordability advocates in Washington, D.C., on Feb. 6-8 for Habitat on the Hill 2024: Reaching new heights, together. Habitat on the Hill is an opportunity for Habitat affiliate staff members, board members, homeowners, resident leaders, volunteers, emerging leaders, and supporters to engage with each other and with experts in the housing field to plan and advocate for local, state, and federal policy solutions that advance home affordability. The conference culminates with impactful in-person meetings with members of Congress and their staff on Capitol Hill, where participants will advocate for federal policy solutions that advance home affordability. The theme of “Reaching new heights together” is a testament to Habitat’s achievements and a call for the future as the network prepares for the Cost of Home campaign’s final stretch. The conference will serve as an inflection point for attendees to further understand Habitat’s unique role in finding and creating policy solutions to our nation’s most pressing issues — leaving with essential tools for enacting state and local policy change to maximize our impact and sustain our advocacy momentum, drawing on insights from experts and innovation from the Habitat network’s significant contributions.

Neighborhood Revitalization will be hosting their community meeting where we will be making vision boards to set and reach goals for your life and community.

Time: 6-7:30p

Location: House of Re-Awakening (602 Vandever Ave, Wilmington, DE 19802)

In America, we have an affordable housing crisis, where the supply has not kept up with demand for all levels of society; from those experiencing homelessness to college students looking for affordable rent, or first-time homebuyers. One of the factors that keeps housing unaffordable is the cost of developable land.

Come hear Rev. Kevin L. Smith of Habitat for Humanity of New Castle County share his thoughts and experience on the affordable housing crisis and how faith communities can be part of the solution.

Habitat NCC’s Northeast Community Meeting will be held on Wednesday, November 7, 2023.  The meeting will be at House of Re-Awakening located at 602 Vandever Ave., Wilmington DE 19802, from 6pm to 7:30pm.  For more details, contact us:  Roshida Austin @ raustin@habitatncc.org or Rosalind Ellis @ rellis@habitatncc.org

If unable to join us for the meeting in person, feel free to join in via Zoom.
