Cover The Coast: Alliance for Affordable Housing

COVER THE COAST: Alliance for Affordable Housing aims to build a more connected, strategically aligned, and supported affordable housing community on the Sunshine Coast. COVER THE COAST is a Sunshine Coast Affordable Housing Society initiative that will build on the efforts of local housing providers, community organizations, local government, and private sector developers to provide safe, afforda

ble, and appropriate housing that meets the diverse and changing needs of the southern Sunshine Coast. The team is working with local organizations and government to implement a Housing Action Plan that will build capacity in the community housing sector, foster partnerships between government and housing providers, advocate to all levels of government for funding and policies that promote the development of community housing across the spectrum (workforce housing, affordable housing, supportive housing, emergency housing), and nurture the development of an educated and engaged community. The work will be informed by the Sunshine Coast Housing Needs Report – Implementation Framework that was published in 2020 and the Poverty Reduction Strategy Report published in 2021.
