Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

To encourage, advocate for, and support the creation of an equitable and environmentally sustainable region where all current and future Angelenos can afford to live, including through legislation, regulations, and government programs.

  • Abundant Housing LA is a pro-housing, nonprofit advocacy organization working to help solve Southern Californias housing crisis. Our organization supports more housing at all levels of affordability and reforms to land use and zoning codes, which are needed in order to make housing more affordable, improve access to jobs and transit, promote greater environmental sustainability, and advance racial and economic equity. We advocate for more housing of all types, send letters and show up at meetings to speak out in favor of new housing projects. We also conduct research and educate the public as well as elected officials on the benefits of more housing. As a 501(c)4 organization, we also engage in political activity to support pro-housing candidates for office. Together with the Abundant Housing LA Education Fund, our 501(c)3 partner organization,we are the YIMBY (Yes In My Backyard) voice for LA County. A small group of NIMBY (Not In My Backyard) Angelenos protect housing scarcity and stand in the way of more affordable housing for Angelenos. We instead stand for a Los Angeles with abundant housing near good jobs and accessible to convenient, sustainable transit. Abundant Housing LA began as an all-volunteer organization in 2016, and while weve grown over the years, most of our on-the-ground work is still done by volunteers. Reach out to get involved and join the party!

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.
