GENERAL SESSION SLIDES AND VIDEO
- Lynn Jacobs, Director, HCD -- We all agree that California needs a permanent source of funding for the state Housing Trust Fund, so we were pleased to welcome Housing and Community Development (HCD) Director Lynn Jacobs, who provided an update on her efforts to develop a "permanent source" proposal for the governor.

- Michael Goldberg and Dick Brooks, Founders, ActionMedia -- The experts at ActionMedia were back to share the latest communications research on affordable homes and shared ways to use these findings to "reframe" affordable homes and achieve our goals!

- Brandon Castillo, Partner, Bicker, Castillo & Fairbanks -- Brandon Castillo explained why it's critical to DEFEAT Prop 98 (the Landlord's Hidden Agenda Scheme) and WIN Prop. 99 (the Homeowners Protection Act). Absentee ballots are hitting mailboxes NOW and it's critical that we all get the word out to vote "NO on 98/YES on 99"!
- Pete Earley, National Bestselling Author -- Mr. Earley's personal story of his struggles to care for his son with mental illness in a system that is broken concluded with a standing ovation by the attendees! Books for Mr. Earley's book signing sold out within 5 minutes, but you can still get a copy in the Housing California bookstore!
