This is a reminder to please join us tomorrow Thursday February 8th for the second presentation in our two part series - A Place to Call Home When You Don’t Have One, Can’t Afford One, or Can’t Find One: Affordable Housing/Homelessness and Regional Plans to Address the Issue. The meeting is Hybrid and the Zoom invitation follows the description.
Albuquerque and Bernalillo County are experiencing many problems related to a housing shortage – people living on the streets, individuals and families “couch surfing” with friends and families, and limited housing available for people new to the area, thus stifling economic development. It affects quality of life, physical and mental health, economic development, and many other issues.
This is the second of a two-part series on the housing crisis here, how it’s affecting our community, and what the various agencies of the City of Albuquerque and Bernalillo County are doing to solve these problems.
Joseph Montoya, Deputy Director of Housing, Family and Community Services, joins the City of Albuquerque after a 20+ year career in affordable housing development in Albuquerque and Santa Fe. He most recently served as the Community Development Director for the County of Santa Fe where he established a new housing trust fund. Over the course of his career, Mr. Montoya has facilitated the creation of over 10,000 units of affordable housing. He also brings extensive experience in economic development and sustainability initiatives. Mr. Montoya completed his undergraduate degree, as well as a Masters in Planning and Public Administration, at the University of New Mexico.
