Welcome Housing Lake Coalition Members
Housing Lake brings together the people who can create change:
Business leaders who want to support their workforce, Elected Officials accountable to constituents, Developers seeking sustainable projects, and Community Advocates fighting for equity. Over a six-month process, we'll move beyond talking to building—identifying specific, implementable strategies that work for Lake County.
Upcoming Meetings and Workshops
Your Participation Matters: Through engaging workshops, activities, and presentations by the nation's leading voices on housing, we'll create a shared commitment to action that you can bring back and implement with your community. Together, we're not just talking about change—we're making it happen.
