Get ready for a vibrant conversation about the future of housing in Fairfax! Please join YIMBYs of NOVA and George Mason University's YIMBY at Mason for a casual happy hour dedicated to building a more abundant, affordable, and connected community.

This is a unique opportunity to bridge the gap between long-time advocates and the next generation of housing leaders. We'll discuss the critical issues facing our city and county, with a special focus on the challenges students and young people face in finding a home.

We'll dive into topics like:

• The Housing Landscape in Fairfax: What's happening with the Countywide Policy Plan and how can we advocate for more homes?

• Student Housing Stories: Learn directly from GMU students about the struggles of finding housing and why their voice matters in this movement.

• Getting Involved Young: How can students and young professionals build a career and life in advocacy from an early age?

• The Braddock District Special Election: A focused discussion on the upcoming December 9th election, the candidates, and what's at stake for housing in this key district.

Whether you're a seasoned housing advocate, a student curious about urbanism, or a resident who cares about the future of Fairfax, this is the place for you. Come to learn, share your story, and connect with others who are passionate about making our community a better place for everyone.
