Making Affordable Housing a Human Right Through Democratic Co-ops

The Bay Area Community Land Trust (BACLT) helps create permanently affordable housing through cooperatively run land stewardship projects, by taking land and housing out of the speculative market and helping to stabilize our neighborhoods.

This year’s theme, “This is Our House,” is an assertion of belonging and collective power. Our house – this BACLT community – is filled with joy, pain, progress, and history that precedes our 20 years. Many people with many stories make up BACLT.

In a political time when powers seek to divide and dehumanize, we stand firm in the belief that it is our collective responsibility to steward land and homes together, for the liberation of us all. This is Our House!


Celebrating 20 years of stories, history, and community building.
