About the Housing Collaborative

The Annual Housing Collaborative is FREE event for the general public. The event’s mission is to connect all of the non-profit community-based organizations that support housing, rental housing providers, renters/aspiring homeowners and introduce the various support programs in Alameda County to our community.

The collective goal is to highlight housing programs such as:

  • Grants & Assistance Programs
  • Energy Savings & Rebates
  • Home Repair Subsidies
  • Fair Housing Education
  • Affordable Housing & Section 8
  • First-Time Buyer Programs & Financing Options
  • Municipal Housing Support Services

Housing Panel Discussion

Given the latest actions at the federal level, municipal deficits, and fires in Southern California we’ll have challenges sustaining our housing priorities and programs in the following areas: 

  1. Marketing programs and outreach
  2. Understanding housing legislative and policy
  3. Funding reduction at the Federal, state and local levels

Don't miss this important panel discussion with leaders in the housing community. Moderated by EBRHA CEO, Derek Barnes, the panel will discuss the potential challenges and threats facing city, county, and housing organizations and municipalities moving forward.
