Durham CAN - a Major Force for Justice and Equity in Durham
Last week, Durham CAN and other advocates for affordable housing had much reason to celebrate!
Willard Street Apartments, a complex offering a mix of dedicated 30% and 60% Area Median Income units, opened in downtown Durham. The 82 units are part of a six-story building that includes parking levels, a non-profit dental health clinic, and a landscaped plaza. Located next to the Durham Station transit hub, Willard Street Apartments is a landmark as the most transit-oriented affordable housing development in North Carolina.
Along with other affordable housing advocates, and with the unanimous support of the City Council, Durham CAN was instrumental in the opening of Willard Street Apartments. Durham CAN, of which Immaculate Conception is a founding institution member, offers parishioners an opportunity to organize with and support the interests of our low-income and vulnerable neighbors.
For more information about Durham CAN and their other affordable housing, criminal justice reform, and jobs initiatives, please visit the Durham CAN website, or consider getting more involved with the Durham CAN team at IC by contacting JPIC director Mariza Mandujano-Ortiz.
