Conversation on Affordable Housing Development in Our Neighborhood

Please join us at Santa Teresa Catholic Church as we engage in meaningful dialogue with our family, friends, neighbors and others in our community.

Homelessness affects each and every person who lives and works in Santa Clara County, but causes and solutions can be difficult to discuss. We invite you to join us in meaningful dialogue and community conversation on homelessness and supportive housing development in a safe space for us all to explore partnerships and solutions together.
