Allston-Brighton Housing Action
We are a community group advocating for abundant, affordable, and diverse housing in Allston-Brighton. We support local and state policies that make it easier to build homes for all—renters and owners, individuals and families—while fostering a walkable, vibrant neighborhood with strong arts, culture, and mobility options.
Beyond advocacy, we're passionate about bringing neighbors together. We meet regularly, show up to neighborhood events, and organize our own fun gatherings, from group bike rides to coffee hours to book clubs.
