Our letter to the President

Dear President Obama,

Please take action to end America’s affordable housing and homelessness crisis. We need:
  • More section 8 vouchers immediately
  • Build public housing to meet the need
  • Full funding of the National Housing Trust Fund
  • Stop foreclosures

Dear President Obama,

My family and I are in desperate housing need. I am a 23 year-old wife and mother of three struggling to get my bills and rent paid. My husband and I are full-time students receiving cash aid until we find a job. The cash aid we receive is not enough to survive, so we constantly have to borrow money. The rent is outrageous. We cannot afford our own apartment, so we have to rent a room for the five of us. If you can, please help our situation by providing more section 8 vouchers immediately. We would be thankful.
