ReImagine Appalachia Southwerstern PA: Mitigating the Regional Housing Crisis

With the second oldest housing stock in the country, too many homes in Southwestern PA are unsafe and unhealthy—especialy in low-income communities.

Homes desperately need roofing, insulation, and energy upgrades. Yet, there aren’t enough trained workers to do this work.

We need federal funding to train workers with weatherization skills – but funding is running dry. And without workers to update SWPA homes, it will be impossible to serve the underserved.
Watch the video to hear from @PittsburghGateways, @ACTIONHosing and local contractors and workers tackling the housing crisis at the root of the problem.
