House Sacramento’s book club on homelessness

Dan AllisonLeave a comment

House Sacramento, the local YIMBY (yes in my backyard, housing for everyone), is starting an Urbanist Book Club in February. The book club is open to everyone, and you can get updates either by the signup below, or by joining House Sacramento’s email list at https://www.housesac.org/sign-up

From their recent email:

Meeting details: Urbanist Book Club: “Our urbanist book club is returning! We plan to convene February 3rd from 2-4pm in person and discuss Homelessness is a Housing Problem by Gregg Colburn and Clayton Page Aldern. We plan to read a couple books a year. We’d love to have you join and discuss this wonderful book! Sign up here if you plan to attend.”

I purchased my copy of the book from Capital Books. It should be available from other local booksellers, and Amazon has it in paperback, Kindle, and Audible Audiobook. A non-Kindle eBook is available from UC Press, the publisher.

The Walkable City book club initiated by Tom Lyons has now concluded. If you know of other book clubs that would be of interest to transportation and housing advocates, please comment with the information.
