How One Family Preserved Their Roots in the Bay

This is the journey of a San Francisco family who found stability, security, and hope through the power of a Community Land Trust.

For one San Francisco family, home is more than just a place—it’s a connection to their past and a foundation for their future. After living in their building for 30 years, they feared losing it all when their home was put on the market. With speculators circling, the possibility of being forced out of the city they’ve always called home loomed large.

“I never knew what stability felt like until the San Francisco Community Land Trust bought our building. It’s liberating.”

Because of affordable housing solutions, their story didn’t end in displacement. Instead, it became one of empowerment, thanks to the San Francisco Community Land Trust.
