Housing as a Climate Strategy

Working at the intersection of housing and transportation, Transform pioneers housing and parking solutions that encourage sustainable transportation and healthy, active communities so that suburban and urban residents alike can rely less on driving.

Integrate Housing with Climate-Friendly Transportation

We push for community-driven solutions and lift up strategies for others to replicate. We advance state and regional policies that foster denser, more transit-friendly development in every city type while challenging our suburban neighbors to adopt a higher standard of density, parking, and transportation.

Transit-Oriented Communities

We build and support coalitions of transportation, housing, and climate groups to advocate for affordable homes in walkable communities with world-class transit.

Creating dense, vibrant communities where people of all incomes can afford to live.

Transform and our partners are working on innovative strategies to build more affordable housing that California desperately needs. Affordable housing that enables people to live near work, school, and other vital destinations reduces our carbon footprint. Dense neighborhoods where people of all ages can easily walk or roll to nearby businesses create vibrant communities where everyone can thrive.
