These and many other affordable homes are being produced as a result of settlements @FairShareNJ reached with over 340 municipalities in #NewJersey these past five years, and should help working families have a safe, healthy place to live for years to come.
More is needed, however, to address the ongoing affordability crisis, and we are committed to continuing to work to ensure that every working family has a home they can afford. Thank you to all who have worked with @FairShareNJ to help make affordable housing real.
