Finding a safe, stable, and affordable place to live is becoming harder for communities across the country—and Rhode Island is no exception. In this episode of RI Voices, we explore the unique housing challenges facing our state and how they’re affecting the health and well-being of Rhode Islanders.

Host Dr. Melissa Clark, Scientific Lead for the RI Life Index at the Brown University School of Public Health, sits down with Brenda Clement, Executive Director of HousingWorks RI, to unpack the complex factors driving housing insecurity and discuss what meaningful solutions could look like. From rising costs to limited availability, Rhode Island presents a particularly challenging environment—but also opportunities for collaboration, policy change, and community action.

Whether you’re a resident, business leader, policymaker, or advocate, this conversation offers insights and concrete ways to get involved in building a more secure housing future for everyone in our state.
