In the fall of 2019, some members of the organizations “N.O”. and "WP3P" thought we need to unite and form an organization, which does not just hold meetings to discuss and talk about social justice, gentrification, affordable housing, etc, but really take action. In addition, we need to unite as many people as we can to fight for social justice, particularly, affordable housing. Therefore, these people started the organization “West Philly United Neighbors” and reached out to 7 other groups to fight together.

We are working on solving the problem of gentrification. We are focusing on this problem in West Philly first and then will apply our experience to the entire city. We think the root of gentrification is lacking affordable housing and city-level policies that only benefit the profit-orientated developers. We are uniting as many groups as we can to fight for our neighbors and communities.
We registered our RCO. Our mission is to promote healthy, affordable housing and prevent unsafe, irresponsible, or haphazard development. Through community outreach and a variety of communication strategies, our goal is to increase citizen engagement in and knowledge of land use, zoning, affordable and safe housing, and environmentally conscious built environments, thereby encouraging development that is sensitive to the character and needs of the communities that reside within our boundaries.
