Candidates running to succeed Ken Yeager as Santa Clara County supervisor in District 4 will gather for a debate about the region’s housing and homelessness crises on Wednesday, May 16, at the Hoover Middle School theater in San Jose as part of Affordable Housing Week 2018.

Co-sponsored by Silicon Valley at Home ([email protected]) and Destination: Home, the event takes place against a backdrop of rising economic inequality in the Bay Area and a regional housing crisis that threatens to undermine the economic dynamism of Silicon Valley, even as it exacerbates the occurrence of homelessness in the area.
