Cities bring people together. More homes mean more neighbors. More neighbors mean more opportunity for friendship, love, creativity, and belonging.

When we say “yes” to housing, we’re saying yes to moments like this, to vibrant streets, shared spaces, and communities where people can find each other. 🌃

What a night! 🎉

Our gubernatorial candidate forum was our largest event ever, and the energy in the room was incredible! In partnership with fellow advocacy groups, we brought together two candidates for governor to answer tough, community-driven questions on housing, transportation, and the issues that shape how we live.

People showed up, stayed engaged, and made it clear: these issues matter. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make this event such a powerful moment for our movement.

Thank you to our sponsors for making this event happen.
