Affordable Housing Month

Each May, East Bay Housing Organizations joins our partners across the Bay Area to host Affordable Housing Month.

Affordable Housing Month is an opportunity to come together to build support for affordable housing and racial justice, and educate our communities on how affordable housing benefits us all.

In honor of EBHO’s 40th Anniversary, this year’s theme is “Powerful Legacy, Powerful Future.” We’ll share lessons learned from leaders who came before us to reinvigorate our future work.


Affordable Housing Month Kickoff Celebration

We’re so excited to announce our Affordable Housing Month Kickoff Celebration on Wednesday, May 1st from 5:30 – 7:30 PM!

Our Kickoff Celebration is our biggest event of the year! This year we’ll come together over food and drinks at BLOC15 in Oakland to celebrate several housing heroes who have made significant contributions to the affordable housing movement in the East Bay. Stay tuned for an announcement of this year’s honorees.
