Our Mission

Building the Movement for Housing for All

Housing & Homelessness Collaborative of Claremont (or Housing Claremont) is a volunteer non-profit organization that serves our city and region by advocating for solutions to our need for more housing, homeless services, and tenant protection. We collaborate with other groups to support high-quality, well-planned housing development and redevelopment for all income levels, prioritizing the critical needs of low and very low-income individuals. We monitor the implementation of the city’s General Plan Housing Elements and compliance with state laws and mandates. We share research and experience about best options for expanding housing and reducing homelessness.

Introducing Inland Abundant Housing: Building Partnerships for Sustainable Housing Solutions 

Our new initiative in 2024, Inland Abundant Housing, a chapter of Abundant Housing Los Angeles, organizes collaboration regionally across the Pomona Valley, with a main priority on encouraging development of new permanent supportive housing and services on the property of religious entities and non-profit colleges.

Only 1 new home per 5.55 jobs added in LA County.

  • That’s why rents are so high.

  • To overcome many of our biggest challenges, we need more housing.

HOW WE HELP THE HOUSING CRISIS

EDUCATION & OUTREACH

We cosponsor and promote education and briefing sessions on housing issues, including building ADU’s and building Permanent Supportive Housing and affordable apartments on property of religious congregations.

RESOURCE SHARING

We offer on this site and sites of our partner organizations a library of free resources related to affordable housing, rental assistance, tenant protection, eviction defense, and
zoning.

RESOURCE LIBRARY

POLICIES & LEGISLATION

We Advocate at the Claremont, County-regional, and state levels for policies and legislation that facilitate building housing.

TRAINING & EMPOWERMENT

We promote and collaborate with people organizing for housing in your own neighborhoods. We provide training, tools, and guidance.

PROJECT ADVOCACY

We advocate for projects in our region that bring housing and center equity in their proposals through robust tenant protections and affordable units. We monitor local compliance with state mandates and with local government’s own approved housing plans.

COLLABORATION

We collaborate with, and keep learning about the issues from, YIMBY, Housing California, Abundant Housing LA, National Coalition for Low Income Housing, and any local organizations or governmental bodies that share our concerns. Let’s watch each other’s backs, and build a movement that unites rather than splintering.
