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

Stable housing contributes to health, job search and maintenance, child welfare, and security.

Affordable housing is critical for maintaining our society.

Help low-income people keep their health and sense of well-being.

Increase resources for section 8 housing and other sources of affordable housing.

I ask for your help for myself and for others who are in my situation.

I thank you, and Gos bless America.
