Giving Back and Making an Impact!
The nonprofit Leadership Kauaʻi (Class of 2023) partnered with the county's housing agency to host the island's second Landlord Summit last week.
The event covered topics such as housing vouchers, tax credits and fair housing regulation updates. The aim was to connect landlords and property managers to nonprofit and county resources to help bring up discussions of housing homeless or low-income residents. "We often see a hesitancy in landlords and property managers in renting to very low-income individuals or individuals who are receiving government assistance, because it has a certain stigma attached to it," said Adam Roversi, the director of Kauaʻi County's housing agency. Roversi told HPR the goal of the event is to overcome that stigma property owners may have. Click here to read/listen to the rest of the article. |
