Why Build Workforce Housing?
Brookwood Partners believes everyone deserves a high-quality education and a place to call home. Increasingly, educators in California are finding it too expensive to live in the communities they serve. This makes it harder for schools to retain talent, leads to teacher turnover and staffing shortages, and degrades the educational experience for all.
Education Workforce Housing is one way school districts, colleges, and universities can address this challenge. Educational institutions own hundreds of thousands of acres of land. Transforming vacant or underutilized property into workforce housing creates a community asset and a powerful recruitment tool.
Educational institutions across the state are increasingly exploring the potential for workforce housing. To learn more about the benefits of workforce housing, contact the principals of Brookwood Partners.
