Practical Love

Our story

We're creating space where people who have historically faced barriers to housing and belonging can participate in community.

The decision

We decided to be part of the solution instead of part of the problem.

We believe people should be free to practice their own beliefs — whatever those are — and we believe those beliefs should show up as physical action.

The problems around us are concrete: housing insecurity, food insecurity, isolation, environmental degradation, and barriers to community and property ownership. We decided to turn our values into work.

Who's welcome

Everyone.

People of different religions, spiritual traditions, and no religious tradition are welcome here. The closest philosophical tradition to our approach is Unitarian Universalism, but Practical Love is not formally affiliated with that organization.

The people

We don't talk about who lives here.

The property currently provides housing for people who have historically faced barriers to housing and belonging. They come from different backgrounds and circumstances, and their lives are theirs.

This isn't "we rescue people." This is: we are creating space where people can participate in community. No one's private medical, financial, or personal information will ever be shared here.
