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 continue our work on expanding support for affordable housing in the communities in our area by reaching out to faith communities, other organizations, public officials, and individuals.
