This support helps us reach more communities to help more of them say yes to housing, and we\u2019re looking forward to what this partnership will make possible,\u201d said\u00a0Ashon Nesbitt, Chief Executive Officer, Florida Housing Coalition.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIn addition to investing directly in building more housing, Airbnb is proud to partner with organizations on the ground, like the Florida Housing Coalition, that are fighting to change the rules to make it possible and more cost-effective to build more housing in more places. Through partnerships like this, we can help address local housing challenges while creating stronger, more resilient communities,\u201d said\u00a0Daniel Hornung, Director of the Airbnb Housing Accelerator.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Coalition helped pass Florida\u2019s first-ever Yes In God\u2019s Backyard (YIGBY) law, enabling housing on faith-owned land, and is now turning that law into homes through a statewide toolkit, workshops, technical assistance, and a YIGBY networking group. The Coalition also leads state and local advocacy for pro-housing reforms that make it easier to build more homes of more shapes and sizes, direct more public and private resources toward affordable housing production and preservation, and support mission-driven builders and service providers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Press release from Airbnb and the Florida Housing Coalition TALLAHASSEE, Fla. \u2013 Airbnb is announcing a new donation&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":399982,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[232,234,233],"class_list":["post-399981","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tallahassee","tag-tallahassee","tag-tallahassee-headlines","tag-tallahassee-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/399981","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=399981"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/399981\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/399982"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=399981"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=399981"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=399981"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
