On today’s episode, we look more closely at two stories that underscore the importance of affordable housing.

First, we’ll examine what the recent Supreme Court ruling in Grants Pass v. Johnson means for unhoused people who are living on the streets and how historical disinvestment in affordable and public housing has created our current homelessness wave.

Then, we’ll hear about the fight to legalize and preserve one important type of affordable housing units in New York City – basement apartments – and how the escalating impacts of climate change are making that campaign more urgent than ever.

GUESTS:

Paul Boden, executive director of the Western Regional Advocacy Project

Annetta Seecharran, executive director of Chhaya Community Development Corporation
