Join a local advocacy group

These groups are leading the way in advocating for people and homes in communities across our state. Many of them are interdisciplinary, focusing on multiple aspects of community wellbeing.

Other organizations—like local food banks, community care organizations, climate groups, health care advocates, and education advocates—might also be important leaders in the fight for safe, affordable, accessible homes.

This list is not comprehensive. If other groups that should be included, or if any of these links are out of date, please contact us and we will be glad to make updates.
