What’s at Stake

California has been hit hard.

The opportunity to build healthy, fulfilling lives for ourselves and our families is in jeopardy. Systemic racial injustice, a widening wealth gap, and a shortage of homes people can afford are affecting our livelihoods and threatening what we love about California.

Goals

1

Create Affordable Homes

We will create 1.2 million new affordable homes for low-income Californians, including for those experiencing homelessness.

2

Protect Low-Income Renters

We will protect 1 million low-income renter households from losing their homes, including more than 300,000 who face eviction each year.

3

End Homelessness

We will end homelessness for more than 150,000 Californians who are unhoused every night and over 400,000 who are unhoused throughout the year.

4

Ensure Racial Equality

We will close the racial equity gaps in housing and homelessness created by decades of racist housing policies that have harmed Black, Latinx, Indigenous, and other people of color.

Policy Change

Housing is the foundation for long-term equity, resilience, and sustainability.

The Roadmap Home includes more than 50 policies that, when fully implemented, will address the root causes of housing insecurity and homelessness across our state.
