California Coastal Commissioner Sara Aminzadeh is a nationally recognized, award-winning climate change leader, lawyer, and published author.
California is facing unprecedented homeless and housing crises. Growing numbers of older adults, veterans, and families with children are at risk, and there are few housing options our local workforce can afford. Sara believes that home ownership should be possible for every family with that dream, with reforms and investments that set cities and counties up for success.
As our Assemblymember, Sara will lead efforts to expand the affordable housing stock to make it possible for our families, teachers, firefighters, and essential workers to live in the communities we love, and preserve our clean air by reducing traffic gridlock on Highways 101 and 37. Connecting homeless people and families to compassionate, effective services focused on addiction, mental health, and transitional housing to provide support and entry into permanent housing are top priorities for Sara as human and social equity issues.
