Why is affordable housing in San Antonio everyone's problem? This week’s guest is Mark Carmona, the city of San Antonio’s first Chief Housing Officer, a position created by City Council in 2018 when council members first approved Mayor Ron Nirenberg’s housing initiative. Carmona overees the city’s Strategic Housing Implementation Plan (SHIP), and previously served as CEO of Haven for Hope and Deputy CEO for the Center for Health Care Services. Listen as Carmona tackles some of the most challenging issues we face: poverty, homelessness, lack of affordable housing, and how San Antonio's projected growth makes these issues relevant to all current and future San Antonians.
