Join resident leaders and NLIHC staff for the next Tenant Talk Live webinar to discuss the impacts of the coronavirus/COVID-19 pandemic and how you can advocate for needed resources and other protections for people experiencing homelessness and low-income renters in your community. The next Tenant Talk Live—a bimonthly call/webinar with resident leaders from across the country—will take place on Monday, April 6 at 6:00 p.m. ET (5 p.m. CT, 4 p.m. MT, 3 p.m. PT).
NLIHC staff will provide updates on what is being done at the federal level to address the pandemic, discuss issues and efforts from around the country, share ways you can take action, and answer questions. Clarksville, TN, Mayor Joe Pitts will discuss what steps his city has taken to mitigate the effects of the pandemic on people experiencing homelessness and on low-income tenants. Then several residents will discuss what they are seeing in their communities and what they are doing in response to the pandemic. Lastly, Sharon Legenza from Housing Action Illinois will discuss how the COVID-19 pandemic will affect the census and the importance of the census.
Tenant Talk Live provides opportunities for residents to connect with NLIHC and one another, to share best practices, and to learn how to be more involved in influencing federal housing policies and to lead in their community.
NLIHC is committed to connecting and engaging with resident leaders in new, more robust ways. If you are a low-income resident and have a topic you would like to propose for peer-sharing or if you want to be a speaker on an upcoming call/webinar, please email us at: [email protected]
