Housing as a Public Health Mission
How AHF is helping change the conversation around housing and human rights
GUEST BIO:
Dominique Eastman is the Regional Property Operations Manager for the Healthy Housing Foundation.
Susie Shannon is the Policy Director for Housing is a Human Right.
Mark Dyer is the Vice President of Operations for Corporate Real Estate and Housing.
CORE TOPICS + DETAILS:
[2:03] - Finding Rooms for Those Who Need Them
Understanding housing as a human right
AHF has recently been buying up vacant properties for the purpose of adaptive reuse—taking existing buildings and infrastructure and converting it into affordable housing for people who are low-income or unhoused. AHF also advocates on behalf of that housing, helping ensure that people are moved into housing quickly so they can begin to experience a stable environment.
[4:09] - Getting Strategic with Building Purchasing
About AHF’s strategy for buying living spaces
AHF focuses on large, empty older buildings—including SROs or vacant residential hotel buildings. There are approximately 10,000 vacant rooms in Los Angeles, and AHF focuses on finding them, acquiring them, improving them, and providing them as housing for unhoused people.
[7:52] - Advocacy First
How AHF is taking steps to protect unhoused or low-income people
AHF’s advocacy efforts relating to rent burdened or unhoused people have included running a national campaign to lift the ban on rent control. They’ve also released a campaign of full-page ads in the LA Times highlighting vacant buildings and how they could be used to house people in need.
