The Pro-Housing Lab Chicago

The Pro-Housing Lab: Chicago is a one-day regional convention bringing together over 100 YIMBY Action members, chapter leaders, and housing advocates from across Illinois on Friday, July 24, 2026. The day combines policy education on key state legislation with hands-on organizing and advocacy training, so attendees walk away with real skills, real deliverables, and a clear plan for what comes next. The gathering wraps with Yes! The Pro-Housing Social where attendees can connect with fellow advocates, elected allies, and partners driving Illinois housing policy forward.
