YP Cost of Living Summit: Deep Dive on Affordable Housing
Bring your lunch and join the conversation with leaders and experts in the industry! See list below of some of the experts that will be in attendance.
Young professionals in Hawaii know very well the challenges associated with living in Hawaii. Many of us have asked the questions:
-
Can and should we live in Hawaii, a place where many of us were born and raised, or move elsewhere?
-
Why are there no affordable homes in the neighborhood where I grew up?
-
If I do decide to stay in Hawaii, do I need to live far away from my job and family?
In this Deep Dive, we will expound on one of the ideas generated during the YP Cost of Living Summit on May 18, 2023, and work to further develop solutions to:
Make low- to moderate-income development more equitable
for residents in neighborhoods across Oahu.
The goal of the event is to brainstorm real ideas amongst our peers that can be implemented in government and the private sector.
As future leaders of the state, let’s collaborate with business and community leaders and make a positive impact for future generations of kamaaina!
Join the conversation to impact change! Leaders include and more!
