SUMMARY:Remaking the Economy: How Policy Can Help Tenants Purchase Their Homes
DESCRIPTION:How can tenants purchase their homes and what do policies that advance that goal look like at the local level? In this webinar conversation\, a coproduction of NPQ and Shelterforce\, panelists look at how “opportunity to purchase” laws work in cities like Washington\, DC and San Francisco\, campaigns that are underway to put similar laws into effect in other cities\, and how tenants have organized to deal with the resistance they encounter. Our expert panelists are: \n\n\n\n• Roshan Abraham is a journalist who has written widely on housing issues both for Next City and Shelterforce. He is based in the Queens borough of New York City. \n\n\n\n• José García is associate director of preservation at the Mission Economic Development Agency (MEDA) in San Francisco. \n\n\n\n• Tram Hoang is a senior associate at PolicyLink\, where she focuses on housing policy work.

What are the financing challenges? \n\n\n\n• In what cities do tenants enjoy the right of first refusal to buy property when a property they are renting comes up for sale? \n\n\n\n• What are the sources of resistance to tenant right-to-purchase policies? Where is this resistance seen and how are housing advocates and tenants responding?   \n\n\n\n• How can tenant right-to-purchase policies promote ongoing housing affordability? \n\n\n\n• How does tenants having a first right of refusal to buy increase tenant power? \n\n\n\nWhether you’re a social movement activist\, nonprofit leader\, board member\, or engaged in community-based organizing\, this webinar will provide you with real-life examples and lessons learned that can inform your work in your own community. \n\n\n\nRegister to learn how nonprofits and movement activists are advancing strategies to address the economic and social inequalities of our time! Click to reserve your seat! \n\n\n\nThe moderators for this webinar are NPQ economic justice senior editor Steve Dubb and Shelterforce editor in chief Miriam Axel-Lute.

SUMMARY:Remaking the Economy: Tenant Organizing in Unexpected Places
DESCRIPTION:Join Nonprofit Quarterly on July 12 for the next installment of their Remaking the Economy series: Tenant Organizing in Unexpected Places.  \n\n\n\nSpurred in part by COVID and by a growing housing affordability crisis\, tenant organizing is picking up in not just expected places like New York\, but in mid-sized cities like Austin and Baltimore\, and even smaller cities like Louisville\, Kentucky\, and Portland\, Maine. Increasingly\, tenant organizing is not just winning battles against landlords\, but changing public policy. For instance\, rent control was passed in Portland\, Maine\, last November. \n\n\n\nIn this 90-minute webinar\, cosponsored and co-moderated by NPQ and Shelterforce\, tenant activists will share their stories\, both in direct organizing and policy advocacy.  \n\n\n\nParticipating in this webinar are four tenant organizing leaders\, who will discuss how they and their colleagues are advocating for renters’ rights at the local level. \n\n\n\nPanelists are: \n\n\n\n· Anneke Dunbar-Gronke is at the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights. They live and work in Baltimore\, representing tenants\, supporting tenant organizing\, and developing community land trusts and housing cooperatives. \n\n\n\n· Jess Falero is a homeless advocate\, Harm Reduction Outreach Specialist\, and cofounder of the Maine Peoples Housing Coalition. \n\n\n\n· Gabriela Garcia is Project Coordinator at BASTA (Building and Strengthening Tenant Action) based in Austin\, Texas. \n\n\n\n· Josh Poe is a tenant organizer with the Louisville Tenants Union and a co-founder and Co-Principal Investigator at the Root Cause Research Center. \n\n\n\nThe webinar will be co-moderated by Steve Dubb\, Senior Editor\, Economic Justice of Nonprofit Quarterly and Miriam Axel-Lute\, Editor in Chief of Shelterforce. \n\n\n\nAmong the questions this webinar will explore are the following: \n\n\n\n· What is tenant organizing and what is the work that tenant organizers do? \n\n\n\n· How do tenant organizers build power? \n\n\n\n· How do location and political context affect tenant organizing? \n\n\n\n· What role can tenant organizing play in changing city and state housing policy? \n\n\n\n· What kind of demands can tenant rights organizations bring to city leaders and eviction courts to provide protections and relief for tenants? What messages resonate with local elected officials? \n\n\n\n· What would be the best advice to give to anyone facing the threat of eviction? \n\n\n\n· What kind of tools can tenant organizers use to organize against private equity owners in the real estate market? \n\n\n\n· How can other sectors connect with tenant organizing?

DESCRIPTION:Join Nonprofit Quarterly in its upcoming event: Remaking the Economy: Advocacy and Community\, the Delicate Balance. \n\n\n\nBuilding viable economic alternatives requires both project-based community economic development work and advocacy to access public resources and make changes to laws and regulations that get in the way.

Our panelists are: \n\n\n\nRudy Espinoza\, Executive Director of Inclusive Action in the City\, a Los Angeles-based community organization that advocates for street vendors\, fights gentrification\, and makes micro-loans for immigrant businesses.Nia Evans\, Executive Director of Boston Ujima Project\, a nonprofit committed to building a community-controlled economy through building an ecosystem of grassroots community engaged investment and participatory governance.Julia Ho is the Founder of Solidarity Economy St. Louis; co-founder of STL Mutual Aid\, a network of over 2\,500 neighbors; and a board member of the New Economy Coalition.\n\n\n\nThis webinar will explore: \n\n\n\nHow does a nonprofit advocate for policy change at the City Hall\, while remaining responsive to its membership?What kind of ecosystem of support is needed to advance economic justice goals? If you don’t have that support\, how do you build it?What stages are involved in developing a mutual aid network? How do you sustain the work over the long haul?What was required to legalize the status of street vendors in Los Angeles? What resistance did the campaign encounter? How was it overcome?   How was a $5-million\, community-controlled loan fund developed in Boston? What were the key steps that made this dream a reality?How do you balance project-based work and advocacy with larger visions of community building and economic transformation?\n\n\n\nRegister to learn how nonprofits and movement activists are advancing strategies to address the economic and social inequalities of our time! \n\n\n\nWhether you’re a social movement activist\, nonprofit leader\, board member\, or engaged in community-based organizing\, this webinar will provide you with real-life examples and lessons learned that can inform your work in your own community. \n\n\n\nThe moderator for this webinar is NPQ senior editor and economic justice program director Steve Dubb.

SUMMARY:2021 Virtual HAC National Rural Housing Conference
DESCRIPTION:Housing Assistance Council’s (HAC) biennial National Rural Housing Conference (NRHC) brings together practitioners and stakeholders from across the field of rural affordable housing and community development. Local nonprofit practitioners\, federal agency staff\, members of Congress\, state and local government officials\, along with other industry leaders will come together for two-and-a-half days of networking\, training\, and idea-sharing.  \n\n\n\nThis year’s Conference features more than 30 workshops\, where participants will interact and engage around best practices for rural housing and community development\, organizational management\, and resource development. The Conference also includes a pre-conference day packed with gatherings for coalitions\, associations\, and working groups. Throughout\, participants will hear from and learn innovative approaches to housing and community development from industry experts\, as well as their peers.  \n\n\n\nIn addition to the extensive learning enrichment opportunity\, this Conference offers an excellent opportunity to connect and engage with federal agency staff\, national housing organizations\, and on-the-ground practitioners from across rural America. For many\, this Conference represents the only opportunity to connect directly with federal policymakers\, housing experts\, and other vested stakeholders. \n\n\n\nThis year\, as we celebrate HAC’s 50th anniversary\, we will use this opportunity to reflect on how our last half-century of helping to build vibrant rural communities has inspired our future. What could be a better opportunity to reimagine how we build communities\, to adapt to the unique housing challenges of the present\, and to harness the innovation of rural America?

SUMMARY:Remaking the Economy: Finding the Levers for System Change
DESCRIPTION:How does social change happen? Join us to explore economic system change from multiple vantage points: including community-based economic development\, electoral organizing\, and group facilitation—with an eye to identifying unexpected intersections and areas of alignment.  \n\n\n\nOur panelists are: \n\n\n\nSendolo Diaminah is co-director of Carolina Federation\, a statewide group that combines electoral work with base-building local grassroots community organizing. In 2020\, the group organized its first campaigns in four North Carolina counties. \n\n\n\nLela Klein is co-executive director of Co-op Dayton\, a nonprofit incubator of cooperatives. Klein was part of a team that engaged in a 6-year-long co-op organizing campaign that culminated in the May 2021 opening of Gem City Market\, a food co-op in West Dayton\, a primarily Black neighborhood. \n\n\n\nTuesday Ryan-Hart is cofounder and systems change strategist for The Outside\, a social change consultancy that helps build infrastructure for equitable systems change and which works with a wide range of groups across the globe in areas such as employment policy\, hunger alleviation\, homelessness\, and refugee assistance. \n\n\n\nThis webinar will explore: \n\n\n\n? What are leading barriers to changing economic systems\, even at the local level? What are some effective techniques for overcoming those barriers? \n\n\n\n? How does one go about organizing a facilitated process to engage in equitable systems change? What are some key questions to ask going in? \n\n\n\n? What does base-building organizing involve in practice? How does it differ from traditional voter mobilization strategies? \n\n\n\n? What are the elements that enable a community to sustain a community economic development campaign over multiple years? \n\n\n\n? What factors go into the choice of tactics (e.g.\, inside v. outside strategies)? \n\n\n\n? What tools can people use to map the terrain and gain a better sense of where and how to act? \n\n\n\n? What are some examples of where organizing has led to major economic changes? What are some of the factors that led to those successes? \n\n\n\n? What steps can nonprofits and philanthropy take to support economic systems change work?

SUMMARY:Nonprofit Quarterly: Remaking the Economy: Health\, Racial Disparities\, and Economic Justice
DESCRIPTION:Register Here \nNPQ’s latest webinar in their Remaking the Economy series looks at healthcare\, the largest single sector of the US economy. Famously\, the US pays more for healthcare than any other nation\, 17.7% of the economy in 2019\, yet its quality falls far short of other nations. Increasingly\, healthcare’s shortfalls are recognized. This year\, the American Medical Association formally recognized racism as a public health threat. And age-adjusted COVID-19 mortality rates for Black\, Latinx\, and Native Americans are twice that of whites. How can healthcare be retooled to address these disparities and promote better health? \nAddressing these issues are our three panelists: \n\nBen Palmquist is program director of health care and economic democracy for Partners for Dignity and Rights\, a New York City-based nonprofit that advocates for a new social contract where everyone’s human needs are met.\nAl Richmond is based in Raleigh\, North Carolina\, and is executive director of Community-Campus Partnerships for Health\, a member-based nonprofit that promotes health equity and social justice through partnerships between communities and academic institutions.\nYolandra Toya\, MD is a physician and community pediatrician\, and a citizen of the Jicarilla Apache nation. In her practice\, Dr. Toya is currently providing medical care to residents of both Native and non-Native communities in New Mexico.\n\nThis webinar will explore: \n\nWhat is the current status of the healthcare system in the US\, and how does that differ according to race\, class\, and location?\nWhat does good community-based health research look like? How does poorly conducted health research in the past continue to cause problems in the present?\nThis year the AMA and many US cities have declared that racism is a matter of public health. But what is required to convert words of concern into action?\nIs COVID-19 teaching us new things about healthcare in the US\, or is it mostly confirming what was already known? If it is teaching us new things\, what are they?\nWhat are the structural causes of healthcare injustice in the United States and what can be done to address them?\nWhat principles guide the US healthcare system\, as it currently operates? What should those principles be?\nHow do we get from “here” to “there”? In other words\, what kind of transition policies are required?\nWhat role can nonprofits and philanthropy play in supporting economic and racial justice in the healthcare sector?\n\nWhether you’re a nonprofit leader\, board member\, or engaged in community-based organizing\, this webinar will provide you with real-life examples and lessons learned that can inform your work in your own community. \nThe moderator for this webinar is NPQ Economic Justice Program Director Steve Dubb. Steve has worked with cooperatives and nonprofits for over two decades and has been both a student and practitioner in the field of community economic development. You can send your questions to editorinchief@npqmag.org to have them answered during the web event. \n
