Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity strives to both change the systems that lead to poverty housing and build communities where everyone can afford to live. To that end we work to educate policy makers and change public opinion about affordable housing. You can join that advocacy effort by signing up to receive TCHFH's Advocacy Updates and Action Alerts.
If you are looking for more information on how important it is to build communities with housing opportunities for everyone, visit our Housing Matters website. There you can delve deeper into the issue through interactive web tools and other learning opportunities and get connected to ways to be a part of the solution.
