How we work

Reform the rules
Back zoning reform and streamlined permitting so more homes are legal to build, especially near transit and jobs.

Educate & engage
Turn out residents to the meetings that matter and make it easy to take a pro-housing position on local projects.

Build partnerships
Work with neighbors, labor, faith groups, and builders toward a shared abundant-housing agenda.

South Bay YIMBY is a chapter of YIMBY Action.
One of the local groups organizing for more homes across the country, backed by the national team.
