Increase Access to Affordable Housing for Low-Income Earners
The issue
I, along with many others, struggle to find affordable housing as I and others like me are deemed ineligible for a housing a trust home and the affordable housing program. I and others earning within this bracket of $45,000 - $70,000, is an income level the government often overlooks. We who fall within this range experience the brutal reality of the private rental market; an unsustainable and unaffordable situation that eats away a significant part of our income, sometimes reaching 60 -70%.
It's unjust that many of us are compelled to bear the costs of the government's oversight, as affordable housing seems to evade those who need it the most. No individual on a low income should be barred from affordable housing due to government ineptitude.
I have found with my research into this that half of all renters spend more than 30% of their income on housing, pushing them into the category of "cost-burdened".
We need a solution, and we need it now. We are urging the government to expand the access to affordable housing for those with an income ranging from $45,000 to $70,000. No one should have to decide between a roof over their heads or food on their table.
Join us in this fight towards housing justice for low income earners. Sign our petition to express your support, increase our strength, and help us make a difference. It's time for change.
