What does Community Impact mean to you? For me, Community Impact means a continuous effort to positively impact the businesses, schools, neighborhoods and most importantly the PEOPLE where we live and build. Take a moment to review the Turner Construction Company's (Philadelphia Business Unit) 2023 Community Impact Report, which will provide insight and examples of our efforts to affect change in a positive way. #tunerconstruction #communityimpact #diversityandinclusion #activecaring #economicdevelopment

When and how can communities get involved in the development approvals process? How do we shift the dialogue from adversarial to productive? Last night, I had an open and candid conversation with 50 passionate community members about the behind-the-scenes of housing development in our city. We talked about the different platforms affordable housing could be delivered through, the definitions and terms, and what community members could do to work together with the development community to deliver more housing choices. Thank you Cheryll Case, Shannon Spencer, Daniella B. Tychon Carter-Newman, PMP, RPP, and the CP Planning team for having me. This workshop was the first of a series as part of the Roadmap to promote racial justice in real estate. #torontorealestate, #affordablehousing

🏡 Considering the housing crunch in the Central Coast, the Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) market is more crucial than ever. Salinas, a farm town, ranking 7th most expensive in the US, ahead of NYC at 11, spotlights the urgency for affordable housing solutions. ADUs offer a viable path, not just in Salinas but across California, fostering accessibility and addressing the housing shortfall. Let's amplify the conversation around ADUs to create more affordable housing options in our communities. #HousingCrisis #AffordableHousing #ADUImpact 🌟

Did you know that approximately 2.8 billion individuals around the world lack adequate housing? Shockingly, 1.1 billion of them are forced to reside in informal settlements. When people have a safe and affordable place to call home, they're better able to access education, healthcare, and employment opportunities. They're also more likely to thrive and contribute to their communities. That's why we are proud to participate in the #HomeEquals campaign alongside Habitat for Humanity International and #HabitatNepal to raise awareness about this critical issue. Together, we can make a difference and strive for a world where everyone has access to safe and dignified housing. 🌟✨ - House equals home, and home equals heart. - House equals safety, security, and shelter. - House equals community, connection, and belonging. - House equals opportunity, growth, and possibility. - House equals stability, foundation, and roots. - House equals dignity, respect, and humanity. - House equals hope, dreams, and a better future. - House equals life, love, and family. #AdequateHousingRightsNow #SustainableCommunities | Indra Kamat

Exciting news! Introducing the Saint Paul Shared Ownership Collaborative! We are teaming up with BIPOC-led organizations with a shared belief that our communities should have the power, resources, and support to control and make decisions about their land, jobs, and housing. We imagine strong networks of shared ownership businesses working together. Our goal is to empower local community members to create, own, and protect their homes and workplaces. As a leading organization in Minnesota, we advocate for policies, allocate resources, and offer expertise to make shared ownership models a practical and available way for BIPOC and intentionally underinvested communities to build wealth. As a group that values racial justice, cooperation, and abundance, we understand the importance of working together to create positive change. Our collaboration includes Metropolitan Consortium of Community Developers, Model Cities of Saint Paul, Inc., Rondo Community Land Trust, and @West Side Community Organization (WSCO) #sharedownership #saintpaul #womenleading #communityownership #placebasedinvestment #solidarityeconomies
