Description

Forum: Housing is Healthcare

The most recent Treasure Valley Community Health Needs Assessment identified housing affordability and homelessness as the region’s most pressing challenge. Rising housing costs are not only driving housing instability for residents, but are also emerging as a major constraint for employers, who increasingly struggle to recruit and retain workforce in the Boise area due to limited access to affordable housing. Join us for a discussion of policy options, successes, and next steps as Idaho continues to grapple with providing adequate housing supply.

Panelists:

  • Ali Rabe – Founding Executive Director, Gem State Housing Alliance
  • Gerald Hunter – President, Idaho Housing Finance Association
  • Kelley Packer –  Executive Director, Idaho Association of Cities

Moderated by:

Corey Surber - Regional Vice President, Advocacy & Government Relations, Saint Alphonsus I Trinity Health
