LIHCA

LIHCA is a coalition of Alabamians that address the housing crisis in our state and increase housing opportunities for those with the greatest financial need.

Everyone's talking about Project 2025, so let's review how it would increase housing instability and homelessness! https://t.co/OFe8XJldsH

When low-income renters are underrepresented, elected officials are less likely to enact policies that benefit their communities. Our Homes, Our Votes works to close the voter turnout gap.

In the case of #JohnsonVGrantsPass, the cruelty towards homeless people is the point. If SCOTUS sides with Grants Pass, housed people like picknickers could freely use blankets in public, but unhoused people could be arrested or fined.

One of the most important mechanisms through which housing impacts quality of life is through educational attainment. Housing provides a foundation from which children can engage fully in schooling and set themselves up for success in the future. https://t.co/61CLICU4CT

“It seems both cruel and unusual to punish people for acts that constitute basic human needs. Here, we’re talking about sleeping, which is universal, it is a basic human function.” - Justice Ketanji Brown

Today, during the LIHCA Week of Action, tell your legislators to support solutions to affordable homes: https://t.co/jVCDsjTCI6

[End Homelessness @naehomelessness]

When you’re experiencing homelessness, the need for housing *eclipses* any other issue.

People who are given a safe & stable place to live before addressing other less critical needs are more likely to attain long term housing stability.

The numbers don't lie: Nearly 70% of severely cost-burdened renters have extremely low incomes and are struggling to make ends meet. #TheGap24 report underscores the urgent need for policy action to ensure housing affordability for all. Learn more here: https://t.co/ZFzeuAvD2M

You can live stream today's budget hearings with @thealachannel - thankfully they also archive these on their website for posterity.

To celebrate #BlackHistoryMonth, we're highlighting different housing pioneers!

Today, we honor Robert C. Weaver, the first African American to hold a Cabinet-level position, as Sec. of Housing and Urban Development. His work paved the way for progress and equality in housing.

[LIHCA @LIHCAlabama]

Great article by @MarySellQuillen talks about the 2024 Budget Surplus. Lets put these dollars in workforce and affordable housing development! The pay off is HUGE! https://t.co/w0OxpP8jfu

[LIHCA @LIHCAlabama]

@nmdbsc @WarOnDumb Dr. Davis - Check out our economic impact study. Its shows the potential if Alabama would invest in housing development instead of continuing to have no stake in the game. https://t.co/GbWwMOzxt8

[LIHCA @LIHCAlabama]

If Alabama would invest in homes, we’d all benefit! #FundtheAHTF

[Kyle Whitmire @WarOnDumb]

The economy is hot. Unemployment is low. Inflation is down. Wages are now gaining ground. But when I ask younger folks why they think the economy is bad, they immediately come back to one thing — the cost of housing is out of control and nobody has a plan to fix it. https://t.co/XCdVAF317w

[LIHCA @LIHCAlabama]

@WarOnDumb Contact us! We have a plan and we will #FundtheAHTF in 2024 - https://t.co/ejrXz8R7XY

Truly as bad as it gets.
