7.22.25 Conversation on Housing in Bibb-Chilton-Shelby Area

The David Mathews Center for Civic Life invites you to join the next round of community conversations on housing in Montevallo and the surrounding counties of Bibb, Chilton, and Shelby.

In earlier conversations, community members helped identify key housing-related needs and resources across the Tri-County Area. Now, we’re coming back together to talk about what actions we can take - and to continue deepening our understanding of housing challenges in our communities.

This conversation will center on the guiding question:“How can we ensure that housing in the Tri-County Area remains affordable, available, and accessible for all residents, including those in vulnerable situations?”

Together, we’ll explore a range of possible approaches - like expanding affordable housing, removing barriers to homeownership, updating local policies to allow more housing options, and supporting individuals facing housing instability.

Whether you're a resident, service provider, elected official, or someone who cares about your community, your perspective is welcome and needed.

The conversation will be guided by a housing issue guide, which can be found here.
