Public Housing Makeover
Why We’re Sharing This:
Public housing transformation requires centering the voices and expertise of residents who navigate these communities daily. This interview highlights how leadership is engaging residents to inform future plans while pursuing deconcentration and public-private partnerships. For RVA Rising, sustainable solutions to housing and economic mobility depend on inclusive decision-making across sectors. This conversation demonstrates how collaborative, resident-centered approaches can reshape public housing into a stronger platform for stability and opportunity.
