Congratulations to the 2008 Affordable Housing Award winners:

The Community Leadership Award was given to the Disney Resort Workers who had filled the City Council chambers for more than a year asking the leaders in Anaheim to help resolve the housing crisis. 

Although Disney prevailed in its efforts to block homes that people can afford in the resort area, an unprecedented coalition of community members from labor unions, faith based collaboratives and political leaders will continue to struggle to achieve their goals. 

 

AbilityFirst received the Project of the Year Award.  By providing services and programs for adults and children with developmental disabilities, their focus is on capabilities and possibilities. 

This focus is certainly helpful. Even with support from the City, it took ten years to realize their newest accessible community in Irvine.
