MICAH works with congregations, faith leaders, and community partners to increase awareness and understanding the need for affordable housing. This creates advocates who fight for changes in public policies to encourage all communities to preserve and build affordable housing.
We are thankful for all the incredible work put in by everyone who helped to host over 100 people - joining us in person and via Zoom. We appreciate the excellent presentations by MICAH Board members, Senator Boldon, Representative Gomez, and Ramsey County Commissioner Garrison McMurttrey.
