Tahoe Truckee Community Foundation (TTCF) hosted the California Secretary of Business, Consumer Services and Housing, Tomiquia Moss for a two-day visit highlighting how forest stewardship and innovative housing solutions intersect in rural, forested communities. Organized in partnership with the League of California Community Foundations, the visit highlighted scalable, place-based solutions addressing California’s dual housing and forest health crises. Secretary Moss was joined by Deputy Secretary of External Affairs Annie Carney and Deputy Secretary of Housing Sasha Kergan. “For so long, State leaders have recognized the significant impact that stable, safe housing can have on other spheres of life, including the workforce, health indicators, and local economies. It’s true that it goes the other way as well. The forest-to-housing solutions you’ve presented today and worked on here in Tahoe Truckee over the last decade can benefit other forest communities, they can be replicated,” said Secretary Tomiquia Moss.
