Neighbor to Neighbor Housing Chats 

Community Conversations for Real Housing Solutions

Housing affordability and homelessness are growing challenges across the Greater Seacoast Region. Neighbor to Neighbor Housing Chats bring people together to discuss these challenges, share perspectives, and explore actionable solutions.

Whether you host or attend, you’ll connect with neighbors who care about housing and discover ways to create meaningful change in your community.

Why Housing Chats?

Housing chats are designed to inform, inspire, and empower residents to advocate for housing solutions.

Change often begins as a whisper—small voices that grow into powerful movements. Real transformation isn’t about grand gestures; it’s rooted in consistent, committed local advocacy. By coming together, shifting perspectives, and amplifying voices, we’re building a future where every Seacoast resident has access to affordable housing.

Every big change, starts with a small conversation.

These gatherings aim to:

✔️ Educate the community on actionable solutions to homelessness and housing insecurity.

By participating, you’re helping build a movement where everyone in the Seacoast region has a place to call home.
