Housing Safety and Stability

Overview

"A house is made of bricks and beams. A home is made of hopes and dreams."

Ensuring universal access to affordable and safe housing is vital for the overall well-being of families and individuals. However, not everyone can access safe and affordable housing, which leads to challenges such as struggling to make ends meet, living in overcrowded conditions, frequent moving, or spending a significant portion of one’s income on housing. These challenges can disrupt various aspects of life, including work, education, and social connections.

Considering health effects, living in unsafe conditions amplifies existing health issues, heightening the risk of hazards such as poor air quality, exposure to lead, harmful chemicals, and other dangers.

To mitigate these health disparities, we support organizations who increase access to affordable housing and improve safety standards. Our goal is to ensure that every resident has an adequate place they can call home.

HOUSING SAFETY AND STABILITY SUB-STRATEGIES

Increasing Access to Affordable Housing

Access to affordable housing is the bedrock for a healthy and prosperous life; however, not everyone has access to affordable housing. We aim to invest in organizations that will provide families and individuals with access to homes they can afford.

Improving Safety and Quality of Housing

Affordable housing is a crucial basis for financial success, yet finding a home that's not only cost-effective but also secure is a challenge of its own. Our vision remains strong: every family and individual deserves a home free from unsafe living conditions that threaten their well-being. After all, a home that guarantees safety and quality is the cornerstone of health, happiness, and prosperity.
