Other invited speakers include a speaker from Baltimore, which enacted a local housing trust fund a few years ago, on what progress has been made in Baltimore, as well as local speaker from Over-the-Rhine Community Housing regarding applications of local housing funding opportunities.
This event celebrates 2022 Affordable Housing Advocates of the Year. Awardees:
Josh Spring (Greater Cincinnati Homeless Coalition) truly believes everyone deserves a safe place to live and has relentlessly been fighting for affordable housing regardless of opposing forces. His ability to bring everyone to the table (those affected, city officials, organizations, churches, unions, etc) to have the difficult conversations that are needed in order for ALL to benefit and succeed.
MARCC (Metropolitan Area Religious Coalition of Cincinnati) is a coalition of interfaith denominations that was formed over 50 years ago to advocate on social justice issues. Housing has been a top advocacy priority for most of MARCC’s existence. In 2021 MARCC took an active role in the Cincinnati Action for Housing Now campaign to fund the Affordable Housing Trust Fund with its Executive Director serving as co-chair. MARCC continually educates its faith members on the need for affordable housing and testifies as a faith coalition to the City Council advocating for affordable housing.
There is no cost or registration required for this event.
