At the City of Tucson, our primary goal is to hear from as many of our residents as possible on the topic of housing and public safety in relation to the City budget. As we understand that this topic can be sensitive and raise significant concerns for our constituents, so we hope to approach these events with compassion and respect for all those involved to allow for productive dialogue to steer us toward shared progress on the housing situation happening in Tucson.

We hope to see you at The Housing Equation!
