In this episode of Curiously, Ericka is joined by Pastor Chris Seay to discuss the urgent issue of affordable housing in Houston. Pastor Chris, who recently testified in Austin, explains the various projects his community is undertaking to increase housing inventory through legislative support, church land use, and the conversion of vacant office spaces into housing. He emphasizes the importance of creating safe, clean, and affordable living conditions and fostering community support. The conversation also touches upon the broader implications of addressing homelessness and the need for collective action from individuals, churches, and the government.
