Ways to Advocate
Throughout Santa Clara County, individuals, community groups, nonprofits, housing developers, and governments are working together to solve homelessness. Here’s how you can get more involved.
Sign Up for Action Alerts
Signing up to receive Action Alerts is the easiest way to get and stay engaged with Housing Ready Communities. We’ll keep you posted on the key moments to take action to support affordable housing development and other solutions to homelessness.
Attend Workshops and Action Opportunities

Our Intro Workshop, available on YouTube, will get you more acquainted with Housing Ready Communities. Another great way to get involved is to attend our Housing Ready Communities Action Meeting, held online every other month on the second Wednesday at 6pm.

Host a House Meeting or Invite Us for an Information Session
We can bring our tools and information to your family, neighborhood, workplace, church or community group. Whether you represent a neighborhood association, business group, nonprofit organization, or just yourself, Housing Ready Communities can help answer questions about the causes of homelessness, and mobilize around the solutions. Sign up to learn more and talk about next steps.
Educate Yourself and Share Information
A key step in responding to our homelessness crisis is understanding how we got to this point in the first place. The long-standing structural forces pushing more and more of our neighbors into homelessness are complex, intertwined and often are overshadowed by myths and stereotypes.
