Save the Date: Learn About Cuts to Critical Section 811 Housing Programs

On Wednesday March 10 at 1:00 PM (EST) the Consortium for Citizens with Disabilities (CCD) Housing Task Force in conjunction with the Technical Assistance Collaborative (TAC) will host a very important conference call on HUD Section 811 Supportive Housing for Persons with Disabilities program highlighting drastic cuts to the Section 811 proposed FY 2011 budget and critical Section 811 legislation which must be enacted to reinvigorate the program.
What the Call Will Cover:

• The HUD FY 2011 Budget proposal eliminates all funding for new permanent supportive housing units financed through the Section 811 program until the new legislation is enacted. We need your help to advocate with Congress to restore these cuts.
• Currently critical Section 811 legislation is pending in the Senate and has already passed the House with strong bipartisan support. The call will focus on strategies and information you can use to engage your Senator to sign on as a cosponsor to S.1481 and save the Section 811 program.

Please join this call on Wednesday, March 10 at 1:00 PM (EST) to learn how to engage your Senator to cosponsor this important legislation.
