I am thrilled to welcome Marc H. Morial, President and CEO of the National Urban League, and Laura Arce, Senior VP for Economic Initiatives at UnidosUS, to the Airbnb Housing Council! As we work to tackle the nation’s complex housing challenges, the expertise and leadership Marc and Laura bring to the table will be invaluable. Their organizations have long been champions for equity, inclusion, and economic opportunity, and I am confident that their voices will help shape our efforts to ensure that housing affordability and homeownership are accessible to all communities. Marc’s dedication to advancing the economic wellbeing of Black Americans and Laura’s tireless advocacy for Latino communities align with the Airbnb Housing Council’s mission to promote greater housing equity. Together, we will continue to push for policies and partnerships that not only increase housing supply but also prioritize inclusion, opportunity, and resilience in communities nationwide. https://lnkd.in/ehegHp2M
