Leaders across California are looking at innovative ways to increase the production of affordable housing. One of the biggest questions regarding affordable housing development is the Bay Area’s ability to finance its production. A regional finance agency for the Bay Area started as a bold and improbable idea and succeeded as state legislation in 2019 through unwavering vision, cross-sector collaboration, and perseverance. The Bay Area Housing Finance Authority is now poised to change the way we deliver affordable housing in the nine counties, leading with racial equity, climate, and quality of life goals. Join us for a panel discussion on how BAHFA will deliver on its mandate and maximize the benefits of its partnership with the Metropolitan Transportation Commission, the Association of Bay Area Governments, and the Bay Area Housing for All Coalition.
