Does "Luxury" Housing Help or Hurt the Unhoused? The Data Might Surprise You.

Join Newton for Everyone for a special screening and discussion that cuts through the noise. We are featuring a short, powerful film by award-winning journalist and economist Justine Underhill that tackles one of the most misunderstood questions in housing policy: What is the relationship between market-rate development and homelessness?
