Regional Housing Summit: From Crisis to Solution
Thursday March 13, 2025 10:00am - 11:00am EDT
How can we dialogue better to find solutions to our housing needs? Four community members from our region who hold a variety of viewpoints related to affordable housing will engage in a panel discussion about strategies and solutions, based on their varying experiences. The goal of this conversation is to model listening and calm dialogue, and to be able to hear the reasoned concepts behind each stance, ultimately to improve our ability to work together to create a community that is livable and inviting for all residents.
