GMCC responded to a call from Hearth Connection & Home Stories to collect brief stories about how supportive housing makes a difference for people, families, and communities in the Twin Cities.

For this project, we interviewed GMCC Housing Resource Navigators / Case Managers Paulina Rivera and Lesia Dembley so they could share their stories about working in supportive housing and how the work has impacted their clients. Watch the video below:

Stories collected as part of this campaign may be shared with policymakers, funders, and community leaders to help protect the future of supportive housing in Minnesota.
About this campaign
- This campaign centers voices from urban and metro communities.
- Cities face unique housing pressures and system demands.
Why urban stories matter
- Housing markets are more expensive and competitive
- They show how supportive housing helps individuals and families achieve stability
- They make visible what happens when support is lost
- They help decision-makers understand the real-world impact of funding cuts
What your story can show
- How supportive housing helps people stay stable in the city
- What changes first when funding or services are reduced
- How housing stability affects neighborhoods and systems
