2024 Impact Report
Setting Our Vision

on Long-Term, Systemic Change

Dear NPH Affordable Housing Community,

Last year, NPH took bold action to build a stronger, more equitable future for the Bay Area. Our 2024 campaigns were the culmination of a multi-year electoral strategy to win system change and generate resources at scale for affordable housing.

It was a time for our industry to be bold, take chances, and play big. And this is exactly what we did. We harnessed the collective power of our industry and movement of affordable housing practitioners, advocates, leaders, and community members. I'm proud and grateful for all who stood with us shoulder to shoulder through the many challenges and changing conditions we faced to advance our long-term vision. I am inspired by the collective impact and investment of our members and partners.

Despite the mixed results, we expanded our coalition's capacity and reach, sharpening our strategies for the next phases of this work. We helped to pass Proposition 1 in March, providing $2 billion in funding for Permanent Supportive Housing, but we lost Proposition 5 in November. We ended the year with momentum, securing thousands of endorsements and reaching millions of voters through the Prop. 5 campaign. We built a broad multi-sector coalition that lays the foundation and positions us for future campaigns to fund affordable housing.

We also successfully worked to restore critical affordable housing funding in the state budget, strengthened the Permanent Supportive Housing ecosystem and increased services funding through our member working groups, and advanced initiatives that continue to build resilience across our sector and support our most vulnerable communities.

I know that our work is not easy. At this moment, it is particularly challenging given the incoming federal threats, the large scale of need, the lack of resources, and rising costs. One thing is certain, however: we will continue to pursue bold solutions to the region's and the state's affordable housing needs. Our neighbors and communities can't afford for us to give up or lose hope.

Thank you for standing with us. I look ahead to 2025 knowing that we'll continue to move with urgency and boldness toward a future where everyone has a place to call home.

Amie Fishman
NPH Executive Director

Policy & Advocacy

What We Do:

NPH's policy and advocacy work advances bold, impactful housing solutions for today and generations to come.

How We Do It:

With our members, we work alongside our partners to advance smart, inclusive, and forward-thinking policy solutions that can address our communities' affordable housing needs, at scale. Our work is primarily focused at the regional and state levels, advocating for legislation, policy and investments that can produce, protect, and preserve housing now and for years to come. We also collaborate with federal partners to drive collective action.

2024 Legislative Session

2024 Legislative Session: Restoring Funding Cuts & Advancing Equity

State Budget Advocacy: Restoring Funding Cuts to Critical Programs

The 2024-25 state budget proposal included cuts to state tax credits and the Multifamily Housing Program (MHP), programs that our members rely on to advance the construction of affordable housing. As part of a larger coalition, NPH and our members met with state legislators to advocate for more funding by sharing the critical stories of what proposed cuts mean for the communities our members serve. The coalition's advocacy helped to restore many of the cuts, ensuring that member developments in the affordable housing production pipeline, otherwise stalled, could proceed and our members' work could continue.

AB 2873 Guidelines: Easing Implementation & Supporting Diversity in Contracting

NPH's Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion Working Group provided critical input to the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (CTCAC) on their agency guidelines for the implementation of AB 2873. AB 2873 requires housing sponsors to submit an annual report (referred to as the Housing Supplier Diversity Annual Report) to CTCAC, outlining, among other things, a detailed and verifiable supplier and contractor plan for increasing procurement from diverse suppliers as well as short- and long-term diversity goals and timetables. The resulting guidelines for AB 2873, which incorporated member input, eased implementation and promoted impact for the diverse suppliers the bill seeks to promote.

Protecting the Surplus Land Act

For several years, NPH has led efforts to strengthen the Surplus Land Act (SLA), including establishing the modern SLA with AB 1486 in 2019. The SLA allows unused public land to serve as sites for affordable housing development. In 2024, NPH advocated to protect the SLA against bills seeking to limit its impact or provide broad exemptions. Our successful efforts ensured that the SLA continues to serve our members in their partnership with local governments, as they seek to find suitable land to develop the affordable housing that localities need to meet their Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) goals.

Measure U NOFA: Equity & Cost Competitiveness

NPH successfully worked with our member base in Oakland alongside Easy Bay Housing Organizations (EBHO), the NorCal Carpenters Union, and the National Association of Minority Contractors (NAMC) to advocate for a release of Measure U funding that supports efforts of our members pursuing local hire policies, ensures project feasibility, and preserves cost competitiveness at the state level.

Working Groups in Action

Working Groups in Action: Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) as the Solution to Homelessness

Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) is a proven strategy in combating homelessness. Through NPH's two PSH Working Groups, comprised of members who develop, own, and/or operate PSH, the Standards of Quality Workgroup and the Advocacy Workgroup, members helped achieve the following to improve the PSH ecosystem for both residents and developers/owners:

Achieved Increases in Allowable Services Funding Caps

The PSH Working Groups successfully advocated with the state to increase allowable services funding. As part of California Assembly Bill 2483 to review services funding caps in the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) programs, the Working Groups prepared a proposal for HCD outlining the impact of PSH and the importance of long-term operations funding. The proposal was prepared in partnership with the Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley and PSH allies from across the state. In October 2024, an HCD memo indicated that the services funding allowed across all program types had more than doubled!

Produced Best Practice Recommendations for Coordinated Entry Systems (CES)

CES is the predominant referral system that connects the most vulnerable households with PSH homes. To advocate for system change, the PSH Working Groups gathered data and met with the CES implementers of five Bay Area counties to discuss their processes and policies. This effort culminated in the PSH Working Groups producing recommendations for best practices that aim to reduce shared pain points, negotiate effective agreements, and improve collaboration between housers and county Coordinated Entry Systems.

Anchored PSH in Proposition 1 Implementation

In March 2024, California voters passed statewide Proposition 1 to develop appropriate care facilities for individuals experiencing behavioral health challenges, including behavioral health treatment, residential care, and PSH. The PSH Working Groups helped improve Prop 1 implementation by ensuring the funds were distributed through the HomeKey+ Program to support the development of PSH for veterans and individuals at risk of or experiencing homelessness. The groups also explored opportunities to expand the Behavioral Health Continuum Infrastructure Program (BHCIP) into PSH developments, by identifying links between traditional affordable housing financing and the Department of Healthcare Services. Working group members also helped to advance the conversation on identifying legal and administrative hurdles within the healthcare and housing sectors by sponsoring a workshop at NPH's 2024 Annual Affordable Housing Conference, “Housing as Healthcare: The Intersection between Proposition 1 and PSH.”

Created PSH Message Guide & Infographic

We know that PSH is one of the most powerful solutions to address homelessness and housing insecurity but also understand that perceptions - and misconceptions - can often limit our industry's ability to deliver on these solutions. To make progress on ending homelessness in California, we need to ensure that PSH providers and communities are stable and adequately funded. To this end, the PSH Working Groups collaborated with our Narrative Team and partners to create a messaging guide, Making the Case for Permanent Supportive Housing in the Bay Area, to help organize our members around a shared, productive set of talking points and data for our shared advocacy goals. Drawing on research produced by the Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley (and based on data provided by seven NPH members), the guide was accompanied by social media graphics, fact sheets, and a companion infographic.

Campaigns & Community Engagement

What We Do:

NPH's campaigns and community engagement work builds momentum toward homes for all with electoral campaigns, coalition building, resident engagement, and voter outreach.

How We Do It:

NPH and our sister organization, NPH Action Fund (dedicated to advancing ballot measure campaigns and electoral strategies), work to seed and spearhead breakthrough solutions at the ballot that fund affordable housing and homelessness solutions at scale. We work with our members to identify strategies and opportunities to place and win critical affordable housing measures on the ballot, giving voters the ability to take action toward the creation of more affordable homes across the Bay Area. We also support and take action on a variety of smart and forward-thinking measures. Through large scale campaigns, we galvanize our member community, build broad-based coalitions, and educate and engage voters, including affordable housing residents.

A Broad-Based Coalition for Electoral Impact

A Broad-Based Coalition for Electoral Impact

A Statewide Network Ready to Fight

Early in the year, NPH helped to pass Proposition 1 on the March statewide ballot, an initiative to address the critical needs for behavioral health services. This measure provides $2 billion for permanent supportive housing for veterans and people with behavioral health needs. For the November ballot, NPH and our members, in close collaboration with coalition and philanthropic partners, spearheaded efforts to create and carry out the Proposition 5 campaign, a statewide constitutional amendment to lower the voter threshold to 55% for local bonds for affordable housing, public infrastructure, and emergency response. While the measure did not pass, our work on this campaign expanded our statewide network and strategy to fight for transformational housing reforms, positioning us for deeper electoral impact in the future. We secured hundreds of endorsements from a diverse array of cross-sector stakeholders, activated dozens of grassroots partners across the state, and reached millions of voters in multiple languages. We engaged our base of voters to support breakthrough affordable housing solutions in California.

A Regional Approach

NPH alongside All Home, Enterprise Community Partners, the San Francisco Foundation, our array of county partners, and our Bay Area Housing for All (BAHA) coalition, pursued regional funding solutions for affordable housing in the Bay Area. In close partnership with our regional agency partners - Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG), Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC), and the Bay Area Housing Finance Authority (BAHFA) - we led efforts to advance a $20 billion 9-county Bay Area affordable housing bond (Regional Measure 4). NPH and our coalition helped secure thousands of endorsements for RM 4 from Bay Area organizations, elected officials, and residents. While the measure did not advance to the November ballot, we laid a critical foundation and momentum for future campaigns. With a strong regional network built and cultivated in 2024, we're well positioned to support future regional and local measures to fund affordable housing.

The Power of Affordable Housing Residents

The Power of Affordable Housing Residents: Engaging and Mobilizing Voters!

Using Data to Mobilize Voters

NPH developed a data-driven approach to ensure that affordable housing residents are recognized as a significant constituency, civically engaged, and activated to vote. NPH compiled a database of affordable housing units - more than 132,000 in the Bay Area - and tracked how many residents are registered to vote and their level of participation. Using this data, we created a mail and digital outreach program with several touchpoints during key election season milestones, delivered in four languages (English, Spanish, Chinese, and Vietnamese). The data collected on voter behavior will inform future programs for affordable housing advocates on how to strengthen the participation levels of affordable housing residents.

Supporting Members with Voter Outreach

To engage with and recognize the diversity of affordable housing communities, we produced voting materials in multiple languages, including English, Spanish, Chinese, and Vietnamese. We distributed tens of thousands of fliers and posters to our members who used these materials to mobilize their residents. This work is part of NPH's commitment to support our member community with the tools and resources they need to engage their affordable housing communities.

Racial Equity & Inclusion

What We Do:

NPH's racial equity and inclusion initiative aims to advance work and enact solutions that are rooted in racial equity and economic justice, to build inclusive, thriving communities that embrace belonging for everyone.

How We Do It:

NPH is proud to embed racial equity and inclusion into all of our work and promote it throughout the broader affordable housing industry and movement. We promote public policies that seek to address the Bay Area's discriminatory housing policies as well as develop comprehensive and innovative programs designed to center racial equity and inclusion in our organization and membership.

Bay Area Housing Internship Program (BAHIP)

NPH is committed to doing our part in diversifying the affordable housing industry and our Bay Area Housing Internship Program (BAHIP) is one such effort. BAHIP is a one-year, paid internship program designed to recruit and train students at Bay Area colleges to become housing development professionals and diversify our workforce. The goal of BAHIP is to advance leadership that represents the communities we serve in our industry, remove common barriers to opportunity, and support a robust pipeline of professional and diverse leaders to strengthen our industry.

In 2024 we graduated our 6th BAHIP cohort, composed of five interns with over half of them continuing employment at their host agency or entering into a related field. To date, BAHIP has graduated 49 interns, with over 50% of graduates working in the housing field and over 85% of graduates working in equity-focused and community-driven work. Several program alumni have advanced in their careers to serve as supervisors and mentors to the current and upcoming BAHIP cohort!

Promoting Diversity within Affordable Housing Suppliers

Promoting Diversity within Affordable Housing Suppliers

Inaugural NorCal Affordable Housing Supplier Diversity Summit

NPH partnered with Swinerton, EAH Housing, and the Western Regional Minority Supplier Development Council (WRMSDC) along with other members of our Diversity Equity & Inclusion Working Group Equity in Contracting subcommittee to co-host the first ever NorCal Affordable Housing Supplier Diversity Summit. The goal of this event was to bring a deeper understanding of AB 2873 across the industry, which promotes diversity within affordable housing suppliers. The bill requires our members to report on the diverse businesses they work with and help remove barriers for small and diverse businesses to compete in our industry. (See more on AB 2873.)

To support our members in meeting the requirements of the newly enacted AB 2873, this event brought together over 300 diverse businesses and suppliers for a unique opportunity to interface with contractors, developers, and advocates in affordable housing. NPH was delighted that our very own Senior Racial Equity & Inclusion Program Manager Monica Joe was presented with a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Champion award at this event. For over five years, Monica's work has helped advance equity and inclusion at NPH and throughout the broader affordable housing movement.

New Venue for Our Affordable Housing Conference

In strong solidarity with the striking union workers of UNITE HERE Local 2, NPH moved the location of our annual conference to the Moscone Center in San Francisco. This new venue was larger than our usual conference space which enabled us to host over 1,200 people, our highest-attended conference to-date. The Conference offered 21 workshops, a powerful keynote with industry trailblazers, 62 exhibitors, complimentary headshot photography, and on-demand Begins with Home T-shirt screen printing. (See more on the Begins with Home campaign.)

Our annual conference is the largest affordable housing conference in the Bay Area, bringing together affordable housing practitioners for networking, learning, and knowledge sharing. The conference is NPH's major touch-point for our members and partners, strengthening our movement and providing a space to expand and deepen the work of affordable housing practitioners. This event is also a critical opportunity for the Bay Area's affordable housing industry to get on the same page and strategize together for our collective work ahead.

Our conference keynote address, Redefining What's Possible: Activating Our Movement for Long-Term, Systemic Change, energized the crowd with four incredible speakers sharing their unique stories on how they've overcome daunting obstacles, won important fights, and continue to inspire those around them to never give up in our work toward justice. The keynote featured: Secretary Tomiquia Moss, Secretary of California's Business, Consumer Services and Housing Agency; Libby Schaaf, United States Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) appointee to the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) and Bay Area Housing Finance Authority (BAHFA); Senator Jesse Arreguin, Former Mayor of Berkeley; and Assemblymember Buffy Wicks, East Bay Representative, California State Assembly.

Celebrating Our Movement with Leadership Awards

Celebrating Our Industry with Leadership Awards

Every year NPH recognizes inspiring leaders in our field who have worked to strengthen our affordable housing movement and have advanced our work forward with innovation, collaboration, and inclusiveness. In 2024, we held our 28th Annual NPH Affordable Housing Leadership Awards, honoring three stand-out, inspirational Bay Area affordable housing professionals: Alice Talcott, MidPen Housing; Secretary Tomiquia Moss, California's Business, Consumer Services and Housing Agency; and Tom Lauderbach, Tenderloin Neighborhood Development Corporation.

By providing a space for housers to honor their peers, we're building camaraderie and joy within our industry while also inspiring and activating our members to keep going in our collective work, advancing our vision of affordable, safe, and stable homes for all.

  • Cost Certifications

Narrative Strategy

What We Do:

NPH's narrative strategy aims to seize the narrative on affordable housing and homelessness solutions to change hearts and minds, grow public support and political will, and drive new narratives for our movement.

How We Do It:

NPH leads the Shift the Bay initiative, a collaborative effort designed to grow public support for our cause through research-driven, field-practiced strategies, tactics, and messages. Over the course of several years, the initiative has supported the Bay Area's affordable housing movement with capacity building programming, shared resources, new research, and direct public outreach.

Shifting the Narrative to Grow Our Movement

Shifting the Narrative to Grow Our Movement: Begins with Home Public Information Campaign

Building on Shift the Bay's capacity-building, infrastructure, and lessons learned to-date, NPH launched our scaled, centralized Begins with Home narrative campaign to build the public support and the political will we need to win affordable housing solutions. This coordinated public information campaign sought to disrupt and replace harmful narratives of defeatism and cynicism with stories of collective action and hope. Begins with Home supports the long-term success of NPH's members by preparing Bay Area residents to be more receptive to and supportive of meaningful affordable housing solutions. Begins with Home is led by NPH, co-led by All Home, and executed with 10 campaign partners working on all areas of housing justice in all corners of the Bay Area.

Increased Public Support for Investing in Housing Solutions by 16 Points with Our Video Stories!

Voters were significantly more likely to support affordable housing solutions after seeing Begins with Home videos, stories of hope that illustrate the positive outcomes when community members are housed and receive the support they need. Our video message testing* (Grow Progress, Fall 2024) showed that our stories specifically increased support for raising taxes that fund affordable housing by an average of 16 points and, with our best-performing videos, up to 24 points! This content focused on the real impact of secure, affordable housing for individuals, families, and communities — including first-person stories from people who have faced housing insecurity or are working for housing solutions. Access the stories through this toolkit.

*Video message testing was conducted in randomized controlled trials using the Grow Progress platform. Representative samples of Bay Area residents were shown different videos, including a placebo video, to determine any persuasive effects, revealing which videos resonate most with our audience and optimize future messaging accordingly.

Created & Delivered 54 Hopeful, Action-Oriented Videos Across Begins with Home Platforms

From TikTok and Instagram to YouTube and Google Display, Begins with Home created a surround sound, pro-housing experience for our target audiences. That means Bay Area residents came into contact with 54 videos, plus other pieces of effective content that help our community see what's possible if we choose a more affordable future for all of us. Access the stories.

Reached Nearly 5 Million People in the Bay Area with Our Stories

These narrative-shifting stories reached millions of Bay Area residents identified through strategic voter targeting as most in need of exposure to our messaging. Begins with Home's resonant content, videos, and messages displayed over 112 million times to more than 4.9 million people, including 42 million views on our videos alone. People subscribed, followed, or joined Begins with Home 17,000 times, committing to stay connected with us into the future. We even earned social media storytelling recognition from our national partner, Housing Narrative Lab, for our “Affordable Housing Villains” video!

Partnered with Allies to Reach Residents in New Venues

Our Begins with Home Campaign Partners and allies helped make critical connections to reach residents in new, unexpected venues. 53 public library branches in 4 Bay Area counties distributed over 10,000 Affordable Housing Month-themed bookmarks and 4,000 coloring pages, getting our affordable housing messages into the hands of Bay Area residents. In partnership with the Oakland Roots Soccer Club, we helped fans make the connection between housing justice and community. We passed out over 400 pennants, attendees posed for pictures with our open-door art installation, and the Roots delivered our Affordable Housing Month message to the entire stadium at halftime. We also delivered new stories through our print edition of The Home Page, a vibrant newspaper filled with stories of progress and examples of collective action. We mailed The Home Page to 250,000 people and distributed hundreds of copies at Oakland's First Fridays in November.
