“It’d be great if access to housing was what it claims to be. We need a voice.”

Partnering with us on our Family Voices Amplified project, Tamara shares her insights on how gentrification and other systemic injustices impact families in her community, and details personal experiences of both struggles and supports she had during the pandemic.

She also shares her ideas for public policy solutions to better support Black families and communities.
