Daniella Levine Cava Veteran Housing Corp would ask three questions about the housing projects you support or are involved with: 1. How much funding, federal tax credits, or government benefits or incentives from all government sources did the projects receive? 2. What is the affordability period for each project? 3. What guarantees exist that tenants will not be displaced after the "affordability period expires? Every local, state, and federal housing authority and affordable or workforce housing stakeholder should adopt the State of Vermont's "permanent affordability" policy as a model for all future government funded or subsidized housing projects or developments, no exceptions! https://lnkd.in/eFEUC8c8

There is Dignity in Labour! As Christians, St. Paul clearly admonished that” if any would not work, neither should he eat”. 2 Thessalonians 3:10 (KJV)” Growing up, we did loads of menial jobs ranging from tilling the ground for others for a pay to pushing of wheelbarrows in the market , serving of mason at construction sites and other legal stuffs just to make money that we are proud to spend as ours. Recently, able bodied people shy away from doing some jobs because they tag them belittling to their status, you’re not rich and yet highly selective of jobs. How can you be broke and proud? It baffles me, you can’t get your financial needs sorted by looking for giveaways online or soliciting for help from strangers. Most people are happy to assist you when they see the effort you’re making and clear plans you have in place to establish yourself. Many business tycoons of modern history has something in common… their days of humble beginnings. Take for instance, Obi Cubana who runs conglomerate of businesses under the cubana group was once selling isiewu as a small business venture. We should not always look at the big picture while ignoring the building process. We should always do whatever jobs available while awaiting for the big opportunities as the little experiences we gather along the way will prepare us for the greater things to come. My name is Johnpaul I am a nurse, a pragmatic fellow and inspire others to get better. Roll your sleeves and get to work. Happy new week🤝

Because of improved health, nutrition and medical discoveries people are living longer than ever before. In fact they are living a third longer than previous generations. And they are staying healthier longer. Jane Fonda has done a TedTalk and has written a book about her Third Act. She began contemplated what she was going to do next when she was my age, 63. And now in her late 80's she is a climate change activist and she wants her legacy to be leaving the planet in better shape for her grandchildren. According to the article "On average most people now spend 31.5 years at work and a third of their life in retirement, but they aren’t making the most of it. The cost of unhealthy longevity is huge and loneliness is endemic; about 40 per cent of pensioners live alone and over-65s spend on average six hours a day watching television." And it goes on to say "Our life expectancy is 4,000 weeks. If you live to 95, that’s 1,500 weeks past pension age — but this time should be about quality not quantity. You may get cancer, arthritis or need a new hip, you may not hear or see as well and have painful days, but your knowledge, wisdom and humour are still valuable to society, and your later years could be inspirational to your family and friends." What will you do with your extra time on this earth? Why not think about what your legacy will be? What will you do for your Third Act? #thirdact #retirement #purpose #elderly #JaneFonda

Have you been feeling a growing discomfort at some of the changes taking place in our society over the past decade including: - Increasingly extreme positions being taken on things like gender ideology and race issues? - Attempts to suppress free speech and the 'cancellation' of views that don't adhere to a particular narrative? - Moves away from pragmatic policy on Climate Change toward more extreme action and the adoption of policies which border on religion rather than science? Perhaps you've also been concerned as you've watched the role of the traditional family coming under threat as the State seeks to insert itself, more and more, into the care and indoctrination of our children? Maybe you've wondered how such ideas, have gained traction so comprehensively and so fast? You're not alone. Survey after survey tells us that these concerns cross the political divide and that these changes are out of step with the views of most kiwis on both the traditional right and the traditional left - meaning you're in the majority. So where is this stuff coming from and how have the views of extremists become so influential? Some of it comes from international mandates that NZ has signed up to, some is the result of decades of political activism, some comes from 'true believer' politicians, and a lot of it comes from the impressionable and opinionated children who now control our media newsrooms. Certainly there has been opposition to this agenda. Conservative groups have sprung up to address specific concerns (some with which I have been involved) - and the election of the new Government has provided hope that some of the excesses will be rolled back in line with what most of us want. But there is one organisation which towers over all of these in respect of the role that it has played as the gatekeeper of, and advocate for, kiwi values: Family First. Led by the irrepressible Bob McCoskrie, no other organisation has had the impact of Family First and, frankly, no other organisation has understood the potential danger posed to our society by the ideas being promoted. Bob is a friend of mine, but he doesn't know that I'm writing this. Nor does he know how much I admire the extraordinary work that he and his team have done and how much of a debt of gratitude this nation owes to him for representing our views in an environment that is determined to suppress them. Watch the video below or check out www.familyfirst.org.nz. You won't agree with all of their positions - but you'll get a sense of just how effective this organisation is and how important it is that its work continues. Voting for change, last October, was a great step in the right direction - but it wasn't enough. Politicians can be influenced by lobby groups and media pressure - so it's important that Family First remains as a strong counterweight to the agenda of those who are trying to corrupt our children and destroy our society. I urge you to support them and their work....
