Held on Thursday, December 4th, 2025, at the CV Rich Mansion in White Plains, the event was more than an awards ceremony—it was a dynamic celebration of the Hispanic business community, recognizing innovators whose dedication, creativity, and leadership are shaping industries and expanding economic progress. Westchester Talk Radio was there to capture the energy and stories of the evening, as leaders and entrepreneurs came together to share ideas, build relationships, and elevate the momentum of Hispanic innovation.Bob Marrone spoke with Ron Abad, CEO of Community Housing Innovations, who highlighted the organization's mission to create sustainable housing opportunities and strengthen communities through accessible support services. 

A report by The New Zealand Initiative finds the Government's ownership of 77,000 state houses has maintenance costs nearly twice that of a private landlord. It finds it also doesn't respond quickly enough to issues like rent arrears, and troublesome tenants.

'We're seeing huge surge in, youth and older adult and women's homelessness, which is very much hidden because women in particular are not safe on the streets.'

The Housing Minister's working to strengthen our community housing sector with a new loan scheme. The Government will take on some of the risk of bank loans to eligible community housing providers. It says the move should lead to more social homes with better lending conditions and lower priced loans. Chris Bishop told Mike Hosking Kāinga Ora currently borrows through the Government's low rates, which gives them a competitive advantage. He's trying to create a housing system that delivers warm and dry social houses, no matter who owns them. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Talk of the Towns: Local Community concerns and opportunities This month: What are some of the ways that people end up without homes? What are their stories?
