Over the last decade, the number of vacant units in San Francisco has skyrocketed, largely due to units being held off the market as either second homes or investment vehicles. They’re in high density areas like SOMA, Downtown, and the Mission District, neighborhoods where the highest concentration of new units have been built has also caused mass gentrification. Vibrant working class communities of color have been pushed out, and more and more people find themselves without a home, while units sit empty.

Join the Council of Community Housing Organizations for an in-person gathering to learn how faith communities and progressive political movements are joining forces to change this at the ballot this coming November. 

In person, at St. John the Evangelist, 1661 15th Street.

This will be a bilingual event in English and Spanish, interpretation provided.

With:

• Violeta Roman Mijares, Faith in Action

• Shanti Singh, Democratic Socialists of America

• John Avalos, Council of Community Housing Organizations

• Supervisor Dean Preston, San Francisco Board of Supervisors
