At EBHO, we believe that the people most affected by affordable housing policy should be at the forefront of the housing justice movement. We launched the Leadership Academy in 2015, after hearing from resident organizers that they wanted to learn more about housing policy and organizing skills. Many of our Leadership Academy alumni also participate in Residents United Network (RUN), a branch of Housing California that brings together people who live in or need affordable housing and who believe every Californian deserves a safe and stable place to call home. Through our partnership with RUN, Bay Area leaders have taken powerful action to make sure that our State Representatives vote for affordable housing. Join us next Thursday, January 23rd for our first Lunch & Learn of the year and hear from EBHO Leadership Academy staff and participants about the program, learn how to apply to join the 2025 cohort, and get involved with RUN! ➡️ RSVP at bit.ly/ebho2025

Great news! Oakland's Housing and Community Development Department is proud to announce investments of over $80 million to create 583 new affordable homes! The five awarded developments throughout Oakland will also include 176 units for people exiting homelessness and those with special needs. These housing opportunities are supported by the Measure U affordable housing infrastructure bond passed by Oakland voters in 2022. Oakland HCD is addressing housing affordability issues through its “3P” framework: Protect Oaklanders from displacement; Preserve the existing affordable housing stock; and Produce new, deeply affordable housing units.

Last week we had the opportunity to attend Bay Area Community Land Trust's (BACLT) press event in Berkeley to celebrate their acquisition of a 12 unit building! Now, 18 local residents that have been contributing to their neighborhood for the last 5-15 years do not need to leave it. This acquisition also means that the property will be affordable housing in perpetuity, providing homes for people rather than dollars for speculators.Our UWBA Ambassador Grant program provided a grant of $15K to BACLT to help them hire a Co-op manager to support tenants in co-op buildings like the one just acquired. Congratulations BACLT! Visit https://okt.to/plfwJm to sign up to our newsletter and be in the know about how you can support #HousingJustice in the Bay Area. #TheWorkUWBA
