Join us on Oct. 22 from 6-7:30 p.m. for a community forum exploring the challenges of homeownership in Nevada, featuring a team of reporters from KUNR and KNPR.
Moderated by KUNR’s Lucia Starbuck, they will discuss why owning a home is increasingly out of reach for many Nevadans and why it’s coming with new threats like the need for wildfire insurance.
This ticketed event is offered both in-person at the Wells Fargo Auditorium inside the Mathewson-IGT Knowledge Center on the University of Nevada, Reno campus, and live streamed for remote viewing.
This event is sponsored in part by Greater Nevada Credit Union. Click here to view the event flyer.
