Tell City Council: Fund Affordable Housing in Third Ward

Overview

Houston faces a growing affordable housing crisis. The City of Houston receives federal HOME Investment Partnership Program funding every year — but advocates say too little goes to neighborhoods like Third Ward that need it most. This campaign calls on Houston City Council members to increase the share of HOME funds directed to low-income rental preservation in council districts D and I. You can make a difference by calling your council member today and asking them to prioritize affordable housing in the 2026 budget allocation process.
