Join us for a deep dive into Florida’s two Yes-in-God’s-Backyard (YIGBY) laws—one a state mandate, the other a local option. These policies unlock qualifying land owned by religious institutions for affordable housing, regardless of zoning. In this session, you’ll learn about how the two laws work, with a focus on land use, zoning, pre-development, how YIGBY can be used to support persons in the greatest need of housing options, and how local housing ecosystems can activate YIGBY. Whether you’re a local government staffer, housing advocate, faith-based leader, or builder, this webinar will equip you with practical tools and policy guidance to help bring affordable housing to your community.
