Jomara Martinez, a Brooklyn resident since 2003, moved to East New York nine years ago seeking peace and a sense of community. However, that tranquility was shattered by soaring rent hikes. Like many New York City tenants facing increased rent costs, Jomara found herself struggling due to a significant rise in her expenses.

We have community land trust projects right here in the region that are working to change how we think about community stewardship and ownership of land. Here is a conversation about how land trusts are democratizing housing in Brooklyn. #communitylandtrust #democratizingwealth
“Community land trusts are nonprofit corporations that hold land on behalf of a place-based community, while serving as the long-term steward for affordable housing, community gardens, and other community assets on behalf of a community.” Community land trusts are changing the game and democratizing housing in Brooklyn - Brooklyn Org

This time next Sunday I will have finished the first day of my bike ride to Edinburgh and be recovering in a hotel somewhere north of Cambridge ready to get going again the following morning. The beginning of 400 miles to raise as much money as we can for Crisis' frontline homelessness services. I'm still feeling pretty terrified by the prospect! To remind you why you might want to make a donation a few facts from Crisis' annual homelessness monitor, published this August: Rough sleeping up 26% in 12 months 100,000 households in temporary accommodation at the end of last year (a family living in a single room in a bed and breakfast hotel, for example); local authorities reporting homelessness prevention services contracting because of sustained cuts to public services, a reduction in the supply of affordable rental properties, and a squeeze on household budgets, and the squeeze on local government finances mean there have been deep cuts to 'Discretionary Housing Payments', one of ways councils are able to help people in crisis. On top of this what we hear from our Pathway hospital teams is that levels of multiple needs and complexity among homeless patients coming into hospital keep on rising, and this group of patients of course already have needs that mean they've been admitted as an emergency to hospital. Long-term we need a wide range of changes to Government housing policy, to funding, to the benefit system, to the kinds of services provided, but in the short term sponsoring me to get to Scotland will help to provide direct support to more people facing homelessness right now. Thank you to everyone who's already chipped in, and thanks in advance for your support. https://lnkd.in/eyiynBxA
