About Southern Marin YIMBY

Southern Marin YIMBY is a grassroots organization of residents who believe that housing scarcity shouldn't limit who can call Marin County home. We advocate for thoughtful, well-designed housing that serves our community while respecting the natural environment that makes Marin special.

From San Rafael to Sausalito, we're working to ensure that housing policy reflects the values of inclusion, sustainability, and community well-being. Whether you're a long-time resident or someone hoping to stay in the area, we believe everyone deserves a voice in shaping our future.

YIMBY stands for "Yes In My Backyard" — a movement that challenges the status quo of housing scarcity and advocates for building the homes our community needs.
