As part of Affordable Housing Month in May, SPUR and the Council of Community Housing Organizations are co-hosting a panel on the state of affordable housing in San Francisco.

Panelists include Lydia Ely, Deputy Director for Housing at the Mayor's Office of Housing and Community Development; Rebecca Foster of the San Francisco Accelerator Fund and the Technical Advisory Committee on Inclusionary Housing; and Jennifer Dolin, CEO of the Tenderloin Neighborhood Development Center.

The discussion will examine how the City is navigating rising costs, limited public subsidies, and shifting initiatives—and what it will take to advance production and preservation at the scale San Francisco needs. Panelists will explore what's working, where delivery is falling short, and how to better align funding and stakeholders around shared goals.
