Civility & Integrity
This is non-negotiable. Organization members will represent ourselves and each other well and work together. Disagreements will be resolved amicably and through thoughtful discussion. We will always be factual and honest.
Action Orientation
We are dedicated to taking action to combat the housing affordability crisis. We will show up to local council and zoning board meetings to make our case. We will participate directly in the political process. And we will be positive, focusing on the merits of what we support rather than the defects of what we oppose.
Issue Focus: Housing Affordability
Issue focus and message discipline will keep our tent big and our coalition strong. We will relentlessly pursue our goal of making housing affordable in Northern Virginia by making homes abundant. This will require much more and denser housing, which in turn will require providing residents with attractive, convenient alternatives to driving such as walkable amenities, protected cycling infrastructure, and transit.
Non-Partisanship & Pluralism
Our organization adheres to a strict policy of neutrality with regard to political parties. We may work for or against specific candidates, but not a party. Any partnership with a partisan organization should not be construed as an endorsement of it. All people of goodwill are welcome in our community.
