MEET BOXY

Meet Boxy, a scrappy little coffee with a big voice whose first words were, "C, mon city planners; we need you to be a part of the solution and change the zoning laws." You see, many mayors and city managers don't see the link between city zoning and homelessness. However, Boxy does, and he also believes in positive capitalism.

Boxy knows that if zoning laws are written to promote private-sector solutions built by local developers, capitalism and the pursuit of profits will solve many of today's housing issues.

Boxy is currently on the road gathering solutions from architects, non-profit organizations, and people in the streets who are on the frontlines of the housing crises and compiling them into a booklet to help us all understand the problems and proposed solutions people and communities can implement to create change. Stay tuned.
