💬 New Blog Post: The Michigan Legislature's recent $83 billion state budget includes a modest wage increase for direct care workers. But is it enough? Direct care workers in Michigan are on the frontlines, supporting some of our most vulnerable community members, yet many earn wages comparable to retail workers, with little to no benefits. With the demand for these essential workers rising, CHN and our partners are calling for substantial changes to uplift this critical workforce. It’s time to ensure our direct care workers receive fair compensation, support, and the recognition they deserve. Learn more about how we can strengthen the direct care workforce and protect our communities: https://bit.ly/4dEzvK3 #CommunityHousingNetwork #NewBlogPost #DirectCareWorkers

We were thrilled to welcome MSHDA Executive Director Amy Hovey to our new affordable housing development, Garfield Landing, and our in-progress project, The Annex, both in Sault Ste. Marie. It was an honor to host Director Hovey, and we truly appreciate her making the trip to see our work firsthand. MSHDA’s partnership has been instrumental in making these projects possible, allowing us to create much-needed housing, both market-rate missing middle homes and affordable homes for lower and middle-income residents. We’re excited to continue partnering with MSHDA to bridge housing gaps and bring more affordable housing to the communities that need it most.

In response to the article about Rep. Kildee's new bipartisan bill, I want to highlight the importance of multifaceted approaches to addressing homelessness. While we recognize that increasing job availability with livable wages and creating more affordable housing are crucial solutions, Kildee's bill serves as another valuable tool in our toolbox. By expanding affordable housing and investing in Michigan communities, this legislation not only helps to create housing but also supports small businesses. These combined efforts can effectively address the root causes of homelessness and foster stronger, more inclusive communities. #AffordableHousing #HomelessnessSolutions #CommunityInvestment #SmallBusinessSupport
