Our Mission
NFABC is a San Diego-based grassroots organization dedicated to restoring local control over housing and zoning. We unite homeowners, renters, youth, and experts to advocate for practical, safe, and affordable solutions. Starting locally, we lead a statewide coalition working toward a constitutional initiative to secure the future of local control in California.
Our Vision.
To work with California communities and political leaders to create housing development that is inclusive, balanced, and community-centered.
Why it matters
Every week, new legislation and planning decisions threaten to rezone, densify, or transform neighborhoods — often without any meaningful public input.
While politicians claim to solve the housing crisis, too many are taking campaign checks from real estate interests while pushing luxury development without affordability, infrastructure, or public oversight.
NFABC exists to shift the balance. We give Californians a platform, a voice, and a movement to protect what we love about our towns, cities, and streets — and to build a system that works for us all.
How We Work.
We organize, educate, and advocate to:
Challenge harmful legislation like SB 79 that sidelines communities
Support policies that streamline housing development without selling out affordability or safety
Equip local leaders with tools to plan with, not against, their neighborhoods
Propose alternatives that are economically sound, politically viable, and morally grounded

Every dollar helps us educate, organize, and take action across California.
We're building a statewide movement to redefine what “more housing” really means. If you believe California can build **more—**and **better—**join us.
Join the movement.
We can’t do this alone. It will take homeowners, renters, parents, students, and seniors — from every walk of life — to stand together and demand a housing system rooted in community, not corruption.
