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.
Continuing last year’s 40th Anniversary theme, “Powerful Legacy, Powerful Future”, we are excited to share lessons learned from leaders who came before us and look ahead to the future of housing justice in the East Bay and beyond.
Events Calendar
One of the perks of being an EBHO member is the opportunity to be included in our Affordable Housing Month promotions and programming.
EVENT SUBMISSIONS ARE NOW CLOSED: The deadline to submit events was Monday, March 10th. Thank you to all who share your events. Please look out for our full calendar of events coming soon!
Events take place across the East Bay and range from resident panel discussions, groundbreakings and grand openings, tours of local artwork at new affordable housing communities, and more! Educational webinars cover topics such as affordable housing finance, homeownership for middle-income families of color, and the role of housing in healthcare.
Thanks to our generous fiscal partners, most Affordable Housing Month events are free and open to the public.
