Calvary PC hosting community conversation on affordable housing
All invited to attend kick-off conversation about affordable housing
The Calvary Presbyterian church will be hosting a “community conversation” on affordable housing on Oct. 26.

Lynelle Caudillo shares the story of a woman who landed a professional-grade job on the Plateau and hoped to live in Enumclaw. The search proved fruitless for the single mother of two and, as a result, she now makes the commute to and from Federal Way.
Caudillo, a pastor at Calvary Presbyterian Church in Enumclaw, tells the tale to attach a real-life situation to a pressing, societal problem. Simply, affordable housing is in short supply in Enumclaw.
The city certainly isn’t unique when it comes to limited supply and greater demand. A lack of affordable housing seemingly is being discussed everywhere these days and it’s a cause being tackled throughout the Puget Sound region. Advocates are found in government circles and among those in the realm of social services.
