Housing is a Human Right
On this episode, Yvette interviews Roxy Valenzuela: community organizer and affordable housing advocate with the Casa Maria Catholic Worker Community. They discuss the mental health toll that the eviction threats take on tenants, the bureaucratic red tape that is causing backlogs for people seeking eviction relief from government agencies, and why community land trusts can be beneficial as a tool against gentrification and displacement.
Here are a list of resources for those fighting eviction in Pima County, Arizona. Please share widely.
