This is our home: Initiating participatory action housing research with refugee and immigrant communities in a time of unwelcome
Community Voices for Housing Equality is a participatory action research group made up of community leaders and social workers whose aim is to address inequality and unfairness in housing by centering the voices of tenants.
In this article, the core Community Voices for Housing Equality research team narrates and presents findings from phase one of the project, focused on the experiences of tenants with refugee and immigrant background in Salt Lake County, UT.
The authors explain how the project emerged and why, describe the process of facilitating critical community dialogues with tenants, share findings from the dialogues, and describe initial actions taken.
