This week we talk to Randy Shaw about the YIMBY (Yes! In My Back Yard) movement and its necessity when it comes to sustainable affordable housing. Randy points out it is not just the poor who are negatively affected by a lack of affordable housing, but people under 30 and seniors are both having a hard time finding
affordable housing right for them.

Randy is the director of the Tenderloin Housing Clinic in San Francisco, one of the leading providers of housing for homeless single adults.

He is the author of "Generation Priced Out: Who Gets to Live in the New Urban America". He also edits for beyondchron.org and is a vocal advocate for the YIMBY movement.
