Mission and programs · 2023
Mission
To empower Californians with the knowledge and tools to advocate for more housing and make our state affordable and accessible for everyone.
Activities or mission (Part I)
California YIMBYs mission is to ensure that California is an affordable place to live, work, and raise a family. We advance our mission by:A.)addressing and correcting systemic inequities in California housing laws, and in related laws and regulations;B.)empowering Californians across the state to engage their elected representatives at the state and local levels on housing and related policies;C.)ensuring that California housing laws and local regulations are evidence-based, equitable, and inclusive; andD.)drafting and advocating for proven legislative solutions that accelerate the pace of home building.We believe that an equitable California begins with abundant, secure, affordable housing. We focus on housing and land use policy at the state level to ensure grassroots organizers and city leaders have the tools they need to accelerate home building at the local level.
-
California YIMBY education, outreach, and advocacy programIn 2023 we continued our strong track record of educating Californians about the causes of, and solutions to, the housing shortage and affordability crisis. We also conducted a virtual lobby week where we connected hundreds of community members and YIMBY activists with Sacramento lawmakers to advocate for better housing policy. We continued to build on our media efforts and were mentioned/quoted in nearly 500 original articles and over 1,000 syndicated articles in local, state, and national press. We secured strong editorial board support and op-ed placements in SF Chronicle, Sacramento Bee, New York Times, LA Times, OC Register, and San Bernardino Sun
Expenses $1,042,683
-
California YIMBY grasstops partnerships and grassroots organizing programCalifornia YIMBY continues to convene coalitions including the Home Building Alliance (HBA): Business groups, affordable houses, policy shops, and other influential organizations in Sacramento lobby together to move votes, and the Local Elected Official Working Group: Local elected officials share best practices for housing policy and politics, provide feedback on state legislation, and engage their legislators to support our bills.
Expenses $382,699
-
California YIMBY legislative and political programIn 2023 we sponsored and championed legislation that will reduce fees for homebuilding, streamline missing middle upzonings, remove technical prohibitions on otherwise zoning-compliant housing proposals, and end a century of exclusionary single-family home zoning by legalizing duplexes and lot-splits throughout California. We also partnered with the Governor to develop a new office that will provide technical assistance to cities and enforce state housing law. In other words, our legislation will accelerate homebuilding and help make California a more affordable place to live, work, and raise a family.
Expenses $41,930

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
