On May 28th 2026, we examined the implementation of New Jersey’s landmark new affordable housing law, highlighting how more municipalities than ever are moving forward with plans to create affordable homes.
The discussion examined how the law is working on the ground, with a focus on innovative redevelopment strategies that are revitalizing communities and strengthening local economies.
We heard from the following speakers:
- Rev. Eric Dobson (moderator)
- Adam Gordon, Executive Director, Fair Share Housing Center
- Jacquelyn Suarez, Commissioner, New Jersey Department of Community Affairs
- Mia Sacks, Councilmember, Princeton
- Heather Cooper, Deputy Mayor, Evesham Township
The event will give policymakers, media, and advocates a clear understanding of the strong housing plans municipalities are advancing — and why New Jersey’s approach is emerging as a national model.
