Modest financial assistance can prevent the vast majority of at-risk households from becoming homeless. By catching our neighbors before they fall, we can help them stay on their feet and maintain a stable living situation. smartcitiesdive.com/news/eme…
We are excited to see what a huge impact this investment will make!

To our partners in the legislature, organizers and advocates, testifiers, parents, young people, and community members from every part of the state: Thank you.
This victory – this historic, life-changing budget – is for you.
Two of our legislative priorities- Housing Support affordability and investment in housing infrastructure to build more affordable housing- made it into the budget this session! We are thrilled for all of the amazing things that were achieved to help end homelessness in MN!
On a vote of 34 to 32, the Senate passes SF 2995 (Wiklund), the omnibus Health and Human Services appropriations bill, as amended by the conference committee. #mnleg#mnsenaterevisor.mn.gov/bills/text.ph…
Ppl with unearned income on housing support used to have all but $121/month of their wages garnished, perpetuating poverty & housing instability for participants. This income modification is an easy, long overdue policy with innumerous positive impacts 🎉🥳#Mnleg#Homes4AllMN
An institutional radical asks ‘what is the community alternative to my service and how can I resource it?’ They precipitate action that’s led BY communities. Most reformers lack the courage this requires, they ask: ‘what can we do WITH communities to coproduce better services.
We did it! Historic $1B investment in housing heads to the Governor for his signature! There are no words sufficient to describe my gratitude to my Senate partner @Lindsey_Port and our amazing housing advocates who relentlessly pushed for a solution as big as the problem. #mnleg
The housing budget with $1 billion for affordable housing and the first dedicated tax source for housing now goes to Gov. Tim Walz for signature.
