Katherine Lucas McKay- Strong Foundations: Housing Security Solutions Framework

Before COVID-19, over 100 million people across the United States were struggling to afford housing. The pandemic exacerbated people’s housing short-term housing challenges – putting almost 40 million people at risk of eviction by the end of 2020 and even more on a trajectory toward long-term financial insecurity.
