25TH ANNUAL VENTURA COUNTY HOUSING CONFERENCE
Thursday, October 1, 2026
The Serra Center, Camarillo
8:00am - 2:30pm
The Conference is an essential tool for tackling housing issues in this region. Ventura County's housing future will be shaped by several powerful forces - from the way transportation and community design intersect, to the growing impact of cross-sector partnerships, to the demographic shifts redefining local needs.
