We love seeing what our Pathways to Manufacturing students are creating!

The program is our manufacturing pre-apprenticeship program, for 17-24 year olds with high school diploma or GED. Pathways is for students who are still in high school giving them hands-on experience and skills that can lead to careers in manufacturing. Now expanded from 7 to 10 weeks, students have even more time to learn, create, and explore what’s possible.

Now we need to keep going: more homes at every price point, more lower-cost homes preserved, and more support to stay housed when rent outpaces pay. None of it happens without continued public investment.

The affordable housing gap touches more people than you might think. Local housing costs have risen faster than local incomes, and even the people who teach our children, care for our parents, and keep our local businesses running are increasingly priced out of the communities they serve. For years, our region hasn't built or preserved enough homes to keep up with what people need. Closing that gap starts with adding over 188,000 more homes across our community.

Here's the good news: we know this works. Since 2020, public investment has helped create about 3,026 affordable homes in the tri-county region, and rental assistance has helped more than 21,000 households remain stably housed. Families staying rooted. Older adults living securely. Workers staying close to the places they rely on.

Now we need to keep going. More homes at every price point. More lower-cost homes preserved. More support to stay housed when rent rises faster than what people earn. None of that happens without continued public investment.
