Get Involved

Home Wanted needs you! You can do a few simple things in your community to make affordable housing a reality:

Put Home Wanted signs up in your community and your workplace.

Start the conversation with friends and neighbors. Ask them about their housing story, record it, share it, and connect it to a tangible solution.

Share the message through social media with a photo of you and the Home Wanted sign and the hashtag #HomeWantedBoCo. Ask your friends to be bold and share the message.

Talk with your employer about speaking out publicly on the need for more diverse and affordable housing for the workforce.

Write to your city council or town board members, tell them you support Home Wanted, and ask them to do all they can to back the effort to triple our supply of affordable homes across Boulder County by 2035, particularly around funding, regulations, and land.
