I am writing in support of Valley CDC’s funding request for the Crafts Ave development.
The needs for this development are many. Here’s one that has been particularly poignant that I am noticing on my walks
and bike rides in the area - tent communities.
Twenty five or so units for people coming out of homelessness, leaving their tents behind, living in apartments with
heating, running water etc, is exactly the important work of the CDC that we as a community must stand behind.
Thanks for everything you do to offer financial support to the CDC’s mission, that at its heart is the guarantee of basic
needs to people in our community. So crucial!
Warmly,
Alison Morse
