Here's what our local newspaper, Pasadena Now, said about our work:
"After years of organizing faith-based communities and local non-profits around the twin issues of affordable housing and permanent supportive housing for the homeless, Shook’s group and its community allies achieved several stunning legislative victories in Pasadena during 2019.
"Due in large part to her team’s organizing efforts, the City Council amended the City’s Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance to increase the affordable housing units in new developments from 15% to 20%. Shook and MHCH successfully advocated for 134 units of permanent supportive housing at Heritage Square South and the Salvation Army property."
