Join the Mission
Designing for Permanence, not Expedience
Lasting change in affordable housing comes from structures that endure, not temporary solutions.
Joining the mission means engaging thoughtfully with this work—helping proven models take root, function well, and last.
This is not about urgency or scale.
It is about doing the work correctly.
Who Engages in the Mission
People and organizations who care about how housing systems are designed, not just the outcomes they promise.
That includes:
- Residents and community leaders seeking long-term stability and meaningful governance
- Developers and landholders committed to responsible exit and permanent affordability
- Funders and philanthropic partners aligning capital with durable, stewarded outcomes
- Public agencies and policymakers working toward institution-ready solutions
How to Participate
Participate with this mission by:
- learning about resident-owned housing and governance models
- exploring whether a project or partnership is a fit
- supporting pilot efforts, education, or replication
- contributing expertise, collaboration, or aligned resources
Participation is project-driven, deliberate, and grounded in implementation realities.
The Next Step
If this approach aligns with your work or interests, the next step is to start a conversation.
We do not place residents in housing, manage properties, or accept housing applications.
