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,

I believe that you are doing everything in your power to help the citizens of America. Honestly I think that we need to have more resources on housing. This year I went through a situation where I did not have a place to live. In November 2008 my brother-in-law got foreclosed and he did not give us notice. Me and my children were struggling. I called the Housing Authority and they said they had closed the list, but they never announce when they open it and when it will close. I believe we all deserve a chance until we gain strength to stand alone.
