About this Event
Los Angeles is changing how housing gets built. New laws, new policies, and new funding tools are shaping what is possible, but big questions remain about what is actually getting built and who benefits.
Join Abundant Housing LA for our First Annual Symposium, a half-day gathering focused on housing abundance and affordability in Los Angeles. The program will feature a keynote and two panels exploring what is shaping housing production today and what it takes to create affordable homes at scale.
This event brings together housing advocates, builders, policy leaders, and community voices for a grounded conversation about where we are now and what comes next.
Morning program followed by lunch.
More details, including speakers, will be shared closer to the event.
