PROGRAM: KEY ACHIEVEMENTS AND OUTCOMES HLC is making a significant impact on the housing crisis in San Mateo County through our advocacy and community organizing work. HLC was deeply engaged with the Prop 5 campaign as a BAHA Coalition member. They publicly endorsed the campaign, organized phone banks and canvassing efforts to educate and mobilize voters. Although the proposition ultimately was not passed, the strategies used to support the campaign helped grow their base of supporters for future campaigns. * South San Francisco leaders stepped up by joining the SSF Anti-Displacement Advisory Committee, publishing a pro-housing Letter to the Editor, and hosting community meetings where residents shared stories and engaged with elected leaders. We are proud of their impact!* The County's Housing Element now includes policies for farmworkers and accessible housing, denser zoning, streamlined approvals, and more thanks to our coalition's work, since November 2022, to push for development standards, tenant protections, special housing needs, and affordable housing funding in the County Housing Element. Read HLC Policy Manager Jeremy Levine's report on our progress and ongoing efforts, including Measure K spending and Article 34 reform. * HLC took significant strides toward advancing language justice by hosting bilingual events, creating a Spanish website option, and expanding our social media capacity to include Spanish. We also launched a Community Interpreter Training program with our pioneering cohort completing the certificate program in February 2025, a program which we hope to see continued and expanded to further language justice in our community.* In October 2024, we launched Our Home San Mateo, a storytelling and resident engagement campaign in partnership with One San Mateo, the Congregational Church of San Mateo, and Peninsula Solidarity Cohort. The campaign aims to build momentum for policy advocacy as the city of San Mateo considers expanding tenant protections in the city.* HLC used Instagram and TikTok to inspire action and build community for housing justice. As part of Begins With Home, Kiana Simmons videos reached 2.7M impressions, with one earning 14,800 likes! Storytelling is a powerful tool to advance housing justice.* Our Faith Communities Housing Champions Program launched in February 2024 by HLCs Faith leader Rev. Penny Nixon, united 19 housing champions from 16 congregations across San Mateo County, to delve into the critical need for housing and explore how congregations can support housing justice advocacy.* In addition, 9 congregations participated in a 5-month long learning group on building affordable housing, with over half now actively pursuing projects on their land. In North Central, one faith community is building a 5-unit residential village reserved for youth transitioning out of the foster care system. You can check out the project here: https://saintjamescdc.org/new-beginnings In partnership with Menlo Together, HLC successfully advocated to rezone parking lots in downtown Menlo Park for 100% affordable housing aimed at low-income community members. The city is now working to release a Request for Qualifications to solicit developer interest. * After years of campaigning to end the exclusionary restrictions set forth in Measure Y in the City of San Mateo, voters passed Measure T by an almost 20-point margin, which will increase the heights and densities the city council can allow near transit and businesses, a first step toward overturning height and density caps throughout the city. Despite well-organized opposition, residents demonstrated they want the city to become more walkable and inclusive. * HLC continues to support individual affordable housing developments such as 320 Sheridan, which will provide affordable homes for Ravenswood employees (e.g. janitors, bus drivers, and cafeteria workers), and 555 Kelly, which will provide affordable homes for senior farmworkers in Half Moon Bay. * Additionally, HLC hosted several community events throughout the year including Affordable Housing Month, Housing Leadership Day, and a South San Francisco town hall to drive real change through advocacy, education, and community-driven solutions.

PROGRAM: HOUSING EDUCATION Housing Leadership Council of San Mateo County (HLC) hosts two significant annual educational events: Housing Leadership Day and Affordable Housing Month. Housing Leadership Day (HLD) is an annual education event held in the fall. Last year's event included 9 workshops facilitated by HLC staff and partners, where attendees learn about the complex dimensions of building, financing, and democratizing affordable housing. Over 250 registered attendees learned about secondary units, building housing on faith properties, housing elements, the importance of public land, Article 34 and its impacts on housing and shelters, and how to include people that do not speak English as their first language in the discussions about housing. HLC also had the honor of hearing from several keynote speakers from California's legislature and housing space, including Senator Scott Wiener and Reverend Marlyn Bussey.HLC dedicates a month during the Spring for Affordable Housing Month (AHM). Through multiple events scattered throughout May, HLC engages hundreds of housing supporters across San Mateo County to collectively learn, mobilize, and understand the positive and extensive impact affordable housing brings. Attendees get the opportunity to participate in informative workshops, groundbreakings, housing policy panels, and affordable housing tours in which supporters come together to recognize the ongoing efforts and power of our local partners, elected leaders, and communities. In 2024, HLC was a planning partner for over 6 events throughout the month, bringing together hundreds of supporters.
