Publisher's summary

Empathetic and excellent advice from one of our nation's leading Housing Authority experts, having served in leadership roles across eight major U.S. cities and one in Canada. In his book, Housing Humans- A Vicarious Memorandum, Gene first describes his early childhood and military life and details how his experiences led him to finding his ultimate calling in working to improve the lives of others via affordable housing. Gene later articulates his specific call-to-action for national housing reform. Gene intentionally and authentically explains to readers exactly what the issues are and more refreshing, exactly what the solutions are. Gene finally gives readers a glimpse into some strong leadership lessons he's learned over the years and some applicable advice on how his lessons can easily transform the aspiring leader to an impactful, strategic servant leader.

Valuable leadership lessons from a top housing expert

Those involved in housing or interested in solving our nation’s housing crisis should read this book. Eugene gives many examples of the issues and politics plaguing housing, from some of the top housing authorities. I particularly enjoyed his chapters on leadership lessons!

Compassion!!

What a great audible! I read the book a couple of times but the audible really gives a better sense of the strong compassion Eugene has always had in the housing industry!

Just keep in mind it’s a memoir

It should be labeled as an autobiography, not a solution to homelessness. Very disappointed in the entire experience as it gives the impression it will teach us how to help but I am still at a loss of what to do to get started. Housing teens who age out of foster care to prevent homelessness is my priority and this did nothing to help. Glad he’s lived an awesome life helping others. It’s just not the book I thought it would be.
