We had big plans to expand YIMBY Week this year, but due to COVID-19 those have been postponed to 2021.
For this year, the message that you can't #StayHome if you don't have a home is resonating around the world, and we invite you to join us in spreading the message that everyone deserves a safe, affordable, hopeful place to call home and that when that is the case, out entire community benefits.

On October 15, 2018, a group of close to 60 residents of Barrie gathered at the Southshore Community Centre to discuss how we could better respond to homelessness in our city, together. Learn more about that inaugural event here.
