People LAND and Housing Alliance
The Peoples Land and Housing Alliance (PLHA) is a response to the structural failures of markets and local governments when it comes to the housing crisis specifically, and to the inequalities in land distribution and use, more broadly. They recognize that the growing tenant movements in the Bay Area and around the state represent a frontline response by impacted communities to the crisis and stand in solidarity with them. Building upon their work, the PLHA focuses on long-term solutions to the housing crisis that fully take into consideration the inequalities of race, gender, and class that have defined housing policy throughout US history and that are grounded in the principles of housing justice.
