We mobilize for neighborhoods with quality, affordable housing and to advance racial, eco, and environmental justice.
About us
PUSH Buffalo was established to: create strong neighborhoods with quality affordable housing; decrease the rate of housing abandonment by reclaiming empty houses from neglectful public and private owners and redeveloping them for occupancy by low-income residents; and develop neighborhood leaders capable of gaining community control over the development process and planning for the future of the neighborhood. PUSH’s members are the community organizers who make affordable housing a reality in Buffalo. Our members work with partners and funders to create a healthy, just and strong city that includes community control of resources, living wage jobs and access to quality education, healthcare and transportation.

"They spoke up because they need cheaper electric bills and cleaner air. ... It’s unfair for the Editorial Board to say green energy advocates are 'complaining' about NYPA’s progress when we’re calling on them to follow state laws." https://lnkd.in/eApf8CKn
