Brooke Page is a strategic thinker and housing educator who has worked for 25 years in the human services field. Her experience includes managing nonprofit organizations and government programs at the state and local levels. Currently, Brooke serves as the managing director of the Western Region at the Corporation for Supportive Housing, where she supports local field operations in communities from the Southwest, Mountain West, Northwest, and California to provide practical support and assistance to increase quality supportive housing. She focuses on working upstream by improving systems and resources to create housing options for individuals and families facing difficult challenges with accessing and maintaining affordable housing.
Her work supports CSH operations and promotes better policies and practices in various sectors like health care, justice, child welfare, aging, youth, and homelessness. Brooke is passionate about serving the community, creating new opportunities for supportive housing, and ensuring that people with complex barriers like disabling conditions or justice involvement can find long-term housing solutions that meet their unique needs.
This year, Brooke, along with her team and Assemblymember Daniele Monroe-Moreno, advocated to secure permanent state-level funding through Assembly Bill 366, establishing the Nevada Supportive Housing Development Account and unlocking $21 million to expand supportive housing across Nevada. As the federal government divests from supportive housing, Brooke’s persistence helped Nevada take a historic step towards building the long-term infrastructure needed to keep our most vulnerable neighbors safely housed.

Q&A WITH BROOKE PAGE
If you could order one meal from any Las Vegas restaurant as your last meal on Earth, what would it be and why?
A rib platter from Annie’s Kitchen, our Saturday tradition growing up. It’s comfort, family, and home on a platter.
What’s a local issue you wish more people paid attention to and why?
People often talk about homelessness, but I wish more understood its root causes: the lack of affordable homes and wages that don’t keep pace with rising costs. Without addressing both, homelessness will continue to grow.
If you were the ruler of Las Vegas for a day, what would be the first improvement you would make for locals?
I’d give locals first right of refusal to buy or rent homes, bid on projects, or access capital, truly prioritizing local families and businesses.
Where in Las Vegas do you go when you need to recharge?
Shadow Rock Park. The view helps me reset and reflect.
Why do you continue to live in Las Vegas?
Las Vegas is home. I was born and raised here, and now I’m raising my family here. I believe in its potential to thrive, and it’s the people who stay and invest in this community who will help it reach that potential.
