HNS is the largest resident-driven,
participatory action research project in the US

“In each episode of “Educate Us”, we bring together resident researchers from nine communities to share their insights and experiences on housing affordability issues. We also interview special guests to share practical information about housing. Our goal is to raise awareness and foster dialogue about the challenged and solutions to this pressing issue.”

HNS Resident Researchers developed this tool to:
- Re-define affordability on residents’ terms
- Assess the current and future state of quality, accessible, affordable housing
- Build and sustain resilience, as defined by community in a Collective Restorative Agreement for Community Resilience, which must include affordable housing
- Demand and support development that aligns with these terms
