Home Sharingin progress
Home Sharing is an initiative of the Alexandria Housing and Healthy Communities Advisory Board (HHCAB) exploring whether the city should develop a program to facilitate residents sharing their homes, particularly targeting older adults in single-family detached housing. The concept was first taken up by a dedicated Home Sharing Strategy Team in October 2025, when HHCAB, joined by representatives from Fairfax Village in the City, evaluated two approaches—passive outreach versus hands-on program development—and recommended a phased, data-driven approach to test community interest over 6–12 months, with NVRC identified as a potential regional partner.
- What are the outcomes and next steps from the July 6, 2026 HHCAB Regular Meeting strategy team update and the July 21, 2026 Home Sharing Committee Meeting?
- When and how will expanded outreach to the Senior Center, Osher Lifelong Learning Institute, and GMU student groups be conducted?
