Gender Jawn S3 E3: Fixing Housing in Philly Part I

December’s edition of Gender Jawn features a two-part series on housing issues facing Philadelphians. In part one, Maria Murphy speaks with Akira Drake Rodriguez about saving the UC Townhomes and Penn’s role in the destabilization of west Philly and the displacement of its residents. Jane Allen, Policy Director for the Office of State Senator Nikil Saval, shares the goals for the Whole Homes Repair Program, which aims to help keep Pennsylvanians in their homes by providing support for essential home repairs.
