Housing is one of the most pressing issues facing Franklin County and rural communities across the country. From workforce shortages and population decline to the struggle of attracting new employers, the availability of housing directly impacts our region’s economic vitality.

Join us for a county-wide solutions-focused conversation featuring a presentation from Massachusetts Executive Office of Housing & Livable Communities Secretary Augustus, followed by a panel discussion examining regional and local perspectives. Together, we’ll explore the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for Franklin County’s housing future.
