Our mission to educate and empower public housing residents is rooted in a clear purpose: to build a fairer, more just world, especially for those most affected by systemic inequality 🤲

PHAR advocates for policies that strengthen permanent affordable housing, public services and employment opportunities for Charlottesville's low-income residents. Economic security is community security 💪

PHAR's community organizing efforts are rooted in Ujima and the collective power of residents working together to improve their living conditions, hold systems accountable, and support each other 🤝

We believe in self-determination through collective action. Residents are the experts of their own needs and lived experiences, which shape the future of our communities✊

At the heart of our work, we emphasize the power of collective action. By organizing public housing residents to come together, we create a unified voice that demands justice, fairness, and opportunity in housing redevelopment. 🙌

Happy Kwanzaa! 🎉As we celebrate the principles of Kwanzaa over the next 7 days, we'll reflect on how these values align with PHAR's mission to educate, empower, and advocate for public housing residents. Let’s rise, speak up, and build stronger futures together! 🥳
