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.
In politics we have basic worldview choices – will we believe we live in a world of ABUNDANCE or SCARCITY, a world organized by COMMUNITY or ISOLATION, and finally, will we approach each day and each other with HOPE or FEAR? We at MICAH choose abundance, community, and hope! And with that in mind, we moved on – to VICTORY!
