The Displacement Prevention Navigator pilot program aims to help people stay in their homes with assistance from paid Navigators, people recruited from local communities. Acting as a bridge between communities and resource providers, Navigators will help renters and homeowners to learn about and access housing resources from the City and other organizations.
Effective January 18, 2022, members of the community seeking to comment at Board and Commission meetings will be able to do so either by phone or in-person for properly noticed meetings.
If you are not part of an organization or partnership that is applying for funds and you’d still like to be involved, there are several ways to engage in the process of allocating Project Connect anti-displacement funding. Join us through one or more of the engagement paths outlined below and stay tuned as more opportunities become available.
At the City of Austin Housing Department and City of Austin Planning Department, we love our work. Our team is full of passionate, energetic generators who have fearlessly answered a civic calling to lean into Austin’s strongest headwinds: affordability, equity, housing, and community planning.
