Thank you to our guest speakers: Commissioner Kevin Tanner of the Georgia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities, Suzanne Jarrard, Assistant Superintendent of Hall County Schools, and longtime school climate expert and advocate Dr. Garry McGiboney.

What can Gainesville teach us about housing challenges across Georgia?

Watch Georgia Appleseed Policy Counsel Luci Ruiz speak with Atlanta News First about the meeting and why these conversations matter to GHHC’s statewide work. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_eI8JWY0-qy3Rvlkdabp9X8OAKrJAXOy/view?usp=sharing

Housing stability is a family issue. On July 29, Georgia Appleseed will convene the Georgia Healthy Housing Coalition in Gainesville for a conversation about corporate ownership, local control, and what a changing rental market means for families. As federal and state lawmakers consider new tools to address institutional investors in housing, we want to hear from Gainesville-area partners about what these issues look like locally - especially for renters, workforce families, immigrant families, and families with children. The meeting will also include information about Georgia's new eviction record sealing sealing law and how it can help reduce long-term housing barriers for families. Join us for a community-centered conversation on safe, stable, and affordable housing in Gainesville. Register here: https://secure.lglforms.com/form_engine/s/wM41nTVRnSX2HlfO48nq_Q
