The Housing Authority of Travis County (HATC) is proud to announce the launch of Let's Talk About It, a new podcast created as part of our HATC in the Community initiative. This series is dedicated to fostering meaningful dialogue with community leaders, experts, and advocates on the critical issues shaping the future of housing and equity in our region.

For our inaugural episode, released in recognition of Disability Pride Month, we are honored to welcome Mr. Henry Cisneros, a distinguished public servant, former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and a lifelong champion for inclusive communities.

In a compelling and insightful conversation, Mr. Cisneros joins our host to tackle one of the most significant challenges we face: ensuring access to safe, affordable, and truly accessible housing for persons with disabilities. The discussion moves beyond policy to explore the history of the disability rights movement, the innovations in design that benefit everyone, and the moral and market imperatives for building a more inclusive society.
