Veteran Housing Corp says that IF YOU ARE NOT PART OF A PERMANENT AND LASTING SOLUTION TO THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING CRISIS AND HOMELESSNESS, YOU ARE THE PROBLEM! THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX IS BROKEN AND NOT WORKING FOR AMERICAN TAXPAYERS Veteran Housing Corp would ask every TAXPAYER to demand and get answers from their elected and appointed government officials the below questions as they relate to any affordable, workforce, or supportive housing project in your community! 1. How much local, state, and federal funding, tax credits, or other government benefits or incentives did the project receive? 2. What is the affordability period for each project? Is the affordability period permanent and in perpetuity? 3. What guarantees exist have your local, state, and federal government officials obtained in writing that rents will not go up or that tenants will not be displaced or evicted after the "affordability period expires? Every local, state, and federal housing authority and affordable or workforce housing stakeholder should adopt the State of Vermont's "permanent affordability" policy as a model for all future government funded or subsidized housing projects or developments, no exceptions! https://lnkd.in/eFEUC8c8 Additionally, local, state and federal housing agencies should look to the Helsinki, FINLAND MODEL of ending homelessness by providing affordable housing for all 'It’s a miracle': Helsinki's radical solution to homelessness https://lnkd.in/er9HZSQU Even the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development AGREES THAT adopting FINLAND'S MODEL OF ERADICATING HOMELESSNESS may be of great value to resolving the affordable housing and homelessness crises in America https://lnkd.in/gkSZWYRU

Investing in Orlando's future through affordable housing We continue to work with our community partners to ensure that every person, regardless of economic status, has access to quality housing that is safe and affordable. Orlando City Council recently approved over $2 million for projects that will continue to support and expand affordable housing options for residents in Orlando. Here’s how these funds will make an impact: ✅ Community Development Block Grant (CDBG): Over $1 million will support projects like replacing roofs of 132 housing units for formerly homeless residents and upgrading kitchens, bathrooms, and plumbing in 36 apartments for low- and moderate-income households. ✅ CRA Funding: Over $1.2 million will support The Beacon at Creative Village, a new 115-unit multi-family development with housing for residents across all income levels. These initiatives reflect our commitment to creating a stronger, more inclusive community for all Orlando residents.

Business Oregon is supporting six city and county projects statewide through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. The CDBG program supports the development of livable communities by expanding economic opportunities and providing suitable housing and living environments for persons of low and moderate income. These six grants total $8,083,100 and assist rural communities with funding for important projects around the state. More: https://lnkd.in/gzye_bAk
