New Community Partner – Struggle for Miami’s Affordable and Sustainable Housing

We welcome the Struggle for Miami’s Affordable and Sustainable Housing to the findCRA Network as a new Community Partner.

Location: Miami, Florida

About: The Struggle for Miami’s Affordable and Sustainable Housing (SMASH) was founded in 2016 to fight slumlords and gentrification in Liberty City, Overtown and Little Havana. SMASH is a part of the “Smash the Slumlords” Campaign, which has been going on since March of 2014. We have been meeting with members of the community about what their dreams and aspirations are, and how slumlords, gentrification and the Affordable Housing Crisis are preventing them from achieving those dreams. We are excited to finally be so close to the creation of permanent affordable housing for the low-income communities of Miami. Please learn about us and our mission so that we can create the future of Miami together as one people, united.
