SAW Housing and THIS IS HOME
We're investing in solutions that house everyone.
We believe that all plans for our community must first be rooted in compassion. When our Director of Community Engagement, Chris Lassiter, paired up with the talented and compassionate photographer, Kate Simon, they created THIS IS HOME – a photography exhibit that tells the stories of the housing insecure and housing heroes in our community.
This exhibit has been traveling throughout local libraries, coffee shops, churches, and art galleries, inviting residents to engage in conversations about housing insecurity in our region. Explore THIS IS HOME online where you can listen to podcasts of Chris and Kate sharing their experience with this journey.
Many of the community members who we met along the way became part of our SAW (Staunton, Augusta County, and Waynesboro) Housing Summit which took place in the fall of 2023.
