Join Next Monday’s (11/14) Our Homes, Our Votes Webinar on Holding Candidates to Their Campaign Promises

The Our Homes, Our Votes: 2022 webinar series features experts with frontline election experience to walk through every step of voter and candidate engagement activities and support housing organizations’ nonpartisan election efforts. The final webinar in the series, “Holding Candidates to Their Campaign Promises,” will be held on Monday, November 14, at 2:30 pm ET. Register for the webinar here.   

Elected officials are most attentive to the concerns of their constituents who vote. After the election is over, housing organizations should evaluate the success of their voter engagement efforts and demonstrate that low-income renters are a significant, active voting bloc in their communities – a constituency to whom elected officials must be responsive. Panelists will discuss opportunities to hold elected officials accountable to their campaign promises, establish relationships with new staff, and ensure that candidates who champion affordable housing on the campaign trail maintain that commitment when their terms begin. The panel will feature Neisha McGee, manager of advocacy, engagement & mobilization at Independent Sector; Molly Jacobson, senior policy analyst at the Virginia Housing Alliance; and Cristin Langworthy, community engagement & government relations coordinator at the Housing Network of Rhode Island.
