YIMBY Action

YIMBY Action is a movement that advocates for increasing the availability of housing in cities by supporting new construction and development. The acronym YIMBY stands for "Yes In My Backyard," reflecting the push to encourage building more homes to address housing shortages, reduce prices, and promote urban growth. The organization works to change policies, combat NIMBY (Not In My Backyard) opposition, and promote sustainable, inclusive development to create more affordable and diverse communities. Their goal is to help cities grow responsibly by balancing development with community needs.
