Description

“Housing Insecurity in Paradise: A New Solution to a Chronic Problem”

Monday, November 17,  6-7pm, Prim Library: University of Nevada, Reno at Lake Tahoe, 999 Tahoe Blvd, Incline Village, NV 

We see the housing crisis escalating in our region—not only in the headlines, but also in the stories of friends and neighbors who’ve been priced out or pushed out of their homes, jobs, schools, and communities by rising financial pressures. Housing insecurity is a reality we are called to address in North Tahoe-Truckee.

Please come to this engaging community presentation — part of National Homelessness Awareness Month — to better understand this problem and its solutions. New collaborations are forming among local faith-based organizations, social services, civic organizations, and philanthropies to make a difference.

You’ll learn about The Sally Fund https://ivcba.org/housing/the-sally-fund-helping-neighbors-with-housing/ to support our neighbors with housing assistance and rapid rehousing funds. Launched by St. Patrick’s Episcopal Church, this fund will be distributed to those in need by Sierra Community House and Tahoe Family Solutions. Representatives from the church and these vital social service agencies will explain the fund’s inspiration from long-time resident Sally Jane Hammel — and its power to change lives.
