This event is dedicated to providing education to employers and community members about issues surrounding workforce housing.  Local and regional experts will present information about the impact of affordable housing on recruiting, retention, and employee morale.  Affordable housing advocates will discuss how housing benefits can help build employee dependability, loyalty and improve the stability of the surrounding community. 

Throughout this event, participants will engage in a forum of ideas, innovations and best practices that will enable them to walk away with a better understanding of how to offer a workforce housing benefit. 

The Westside Workforce Housing Summit is endorsed by Washington County, the Vision Action Network, and the Community Housing Fund and is presented by the Portland Housing Center, the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco and HomeStreet Bank.
