Bringing SF residents together to learn, connect, & build towards solutions for housing
About this Event
Everyone agrees: San Francisco has a housing problem that affects us all. So what are we going to do about it?
On September 21, this year's National Day of Civic Hacking will bring together a set of speakers/panelists with diverse perspectives on the drivers of our current housing crisis, followed by a day of action where friends & neighbors will collaborate to start building towards solutions. Join fellow Bay Area residents to learn about what's contributing to our housing situation today from a variety of angles: cultural, economic, political, & personal.
After you listen & get inspired by the panelists, you'll break out into groups to begin laying the groundwork for projects that live on even after the event is over. We welcome all residents to participate, regardless of background, identity, skills, or interests - because our housing problem affects everyone, & it can't be solved without everyone's help.
