Issues In Housing: Speaking And Listening From The Heart


In Santa Cruz County, the cost of housing has increased dramatically over the last several years. The changes have affected the cost of both home purchases and home rentals. The topic has become fraught and emotionally charged. It speaks to one of our most basic needs and runs up against different ideas of what is just and fair and what type of system works best. In this Conversation for Change, we will share our own experiences with housing, and how they have shaped our views on solutions.
