Video — Finding Inspiration in The Jubilee Year: Remarks by Jim Knight
At Jubilee Housing’s 50th Anniversary Gala last November, CEO Jim Knight reflected on finding inspiration in the transformational vision of our namesake, the Jubilee Year. Watch a highlight of Jim’s remarks in the video below.
As we celebrate 50 years of impact, we are looking to Jubilee Year principles to guide us: Filling gaps through access to deeply affordable housing, onsite and nearby services, and the essential resources of high opportunity neighborhoods — Justice Housing®, breaking down boundaries by bringing those cut off from opportunity back into the circle of belonging, and resetting the system by interrupting unfair practices at the systemic level and replacing them with just pathways forward that have impact far beyond our neighborhood.
We are also planning a year of 50th anniversary commemorative activities including:
1. Stories, articles, interviews, and more!
2. More ways to engage than ever, with the return of our popular events such as Justice Housing Tours, Justice Housing Breakfast, and Raise the Roof plus new hard hat tours and social gatherings.
3. A special 50th edition monthly Jubilee e-newsletter.
