The February 6th Economic & Public Policy Breakfast Forum will examine the region's current housing situation and its effect on employers, employees, constituents, students and young professionals.
“The high cost of housing on the North Shore has placed working families at risk,”
said Beth Hogan, executive director of the Peabody-based North Shore Community Action Programs, Inc. “This situation continues to challenge economic growth and stability in our region.”
The current scarcity and high prices of housing hinders the ability of North Shore employers to recruit qualified workers. The Chamber seeks to support projects and processes which will lead to more such housing for our talented and educated workforce.
Employers, educators, elected officials, healthcare providers and human services workers are urged to attend to discuss how we can
work together to create sustainable solutions.
