You are invited to join St. Louis REALTORS® and UMSL CIAC for a conversation about an important but often overlooked part of our region’s housing challenge: how we repair and preserve the homes we already have.

The Hidden Housing Crisis: Home Repair in St. Louis County
Tuesday, September 29 | 11:30 a.m.–1:30 p.m.
Donald Danforth Plant Science Center
975 N. Warson Road
Lunch included | Registration: $20

UMSL’s Todd Swanstrom will share new research examining the repair needs of single-family homes in St. Louis County. Karen Black, CEO of May 8 Consulting and lecturer at the University of Pennsylvania, will provide a national perspective on why home repair matters and what other communities are doing about it. We’ll then bring the conversation home with a panel discussing current home-repair efforts in the St. Louis region.

We’re intentionally bringing together people from housing and community development, local government, philanthropy, finance, construction, public health, and other sectors that have a role to play in addressing this issue. I hope you’ll be part of the conversation.
