SUMMARY:Rent is Due: Day of Action - 9/4/24
DESCRIPTION:As we work towards our vision for “all people to have a home\,” we know that at the beginning of every month\, over 200\,000 households pay too much rent. Housing insecurity jeopardizes the health of individuals and families\, drives the growing numbers of people experiencing homelessness\, and increases the racial disparities already present.  \nWe gather the first Wednesday of every month as Beacon advocates to change this reality. We are working to create rental assistance for all through Bring it Home\, Minnesota\, create new policies to make more deeply affordable supportive housing available\, and other policies so all people have a home. During our 30-minute virtual meeting\, you will hear updates on Bring it Home\, Minnesota\, and our other campaigns\, hear from special guests or elected officials\, and be given concrete actions to do.   \nOur goal is an efficient\, clear meeting once a month for you to feel connected to the work and able to take impactful action. We have been holding this meeting successfully since June of 2020\, and for these three years\, people joining together to take action once a month have made a difference.  \nA Zoom meeting with Closed Captioning is available. Please register below to receive the link to join.

DESCRIPTION:As we work toward a vision where “all people have a home\,” we know that over 200\,000 households struggle to pay rent at the beginning of every month. Housing insecurity jeopardizes the health of individuals\, families\, and communities\, drives people toward homelessness\, and increases racial disparities. \nDuring our Rent Is Due meetings\, we’ll gather as Beacon advocates to change this reality. \nTogether\, we’re advocating for new policies that make it easier for all people to have a safe\, affordable place to call home. \nDuring our 30-minute virtual meeting\, you’ll hear updates on our current campaigns\, hear from special guests or elected officials\, and receive concrete actions to help you advance our mission. \nRent is Due helps us connect to our work as housing advocates and take meaningful\, collective action toward a brighter future where all people have a home. \nSince these meetings started in 2020\, our collective actions have helped bring that ideal future closer. Working together\, we helped advocate for state legislators to approve a historic $2 billion in funding for supportive housing. We broke ground on several new apartment homes and paved the way for many more. \nTogether\, we can move mountains. \nWe will provide a Zoom link with closed captioning for this meeting.

Housing insecurity jeopardizes the health of individuals and families\, drives the growing numbers of people experiencing homelessness\, and increases the racial disparities already present.  \nWe gather the first Wednesday of every month as Beacon advocates to change this reality. We are working to create rental assistance for all through Bring it Home\, Minnesota\, create new policies to make more deeply affordable supportive housing available\, and other policies so all people have a home. During our 30-minute virtual meeting\, you will hear updates on Bring it Home\, Minnesota\, and our other campaigns\, hear from special guests or elected officials\, and be given concrete actions to do.   \nOur goal is an efficient\, clear meeting once a month for you to feel connected to the work and able to take impactful action. We have been holding this meeting successfully since June of 2020\, and for these three years\, people joining together to take action once a month have made a difference.  \nA Zoom meeting with Closed Captioning is available. Please register below to receive the link to join.

SUMMARY:Hearing: Multifamily Residential Development Act - 4/12/2024
DESCRIPTION:Join us in-person or virtually to support the Hearing: Multifamily Residential Development Act in the House State Government Committee at 8:30 am this Friday\, 4/12\, in the State Government Building\, Room 10. \nThis bill would be transformational to changing our land use laws to make it easier to build more multifamily homes like Beacon creates. \nThere is opposition to changing the status quo\, which gives outsized power to NIMBY. We need supporters in the room in their blue Beacon\, showing their values that all types of homes belong in all communities. \nIf you cannot join in person\, please register and mark you will be joining virtually below. We will email you the location to watch the hearing. \nClick here to sign up for the event on Friday.
