The Urban Institute, a nonprofit, nonpartisan social and economic policy research organization based in Washington, DC is conducting a study to understand the range of experiences related to precarious housing situations for Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islanders (AANHPIs). Building on Urban Institute’s ongoing research, Unlocking Wealth: Homeownership and Upward Mobility for AANHPIs, this study is funded by the Asian Real Estate Association of America (AREAA) and focuses on AANHPI individuals and families facing homelessness or housing instability.
If you are part of an organization that serves AANHPIs who experience housing instability or homelessness, please consider participating in this survey. This survey aims to document unmet needs, identify gaps in services and data systems, and provide insights to strengthen policies and practices that better support AANHPI communities experiencing housing challenges.
Ideally, the respondent should be someone who can speak to observed experiences of housing instability or homelessness within AANHPI communities. Participation is entirely voluntary. The survey takes approximately 15 minutes and includes questions focused on housing instability, culturally responsive service delivery, and gaps in existing support systems. Feel free to forward the survey link to anyone at your organization you think can speak on these topics. This survey closes on Friday, January 23rd.
