Eastside Leadership For Equitable and Accountable Development Strategies (Eastside LEADS) was established in 2017 comprising community members and eight community-based partner organizations working together to ensure urban development and investment is guided by the needs and priorities of the community first, without displacement. Eastside LEADS organizes and advocates for policies that advance the values of social housing, including the preservation and expansion of affordable housing, the promotion of social equity, and the right to give community members control over the decision-making and governance process impacting their housing and local matters.
