Join Today’s (June 13) Our Homes, Our Votes: 2022 Webinar on Registering Residents of Subsidized Housing and Community Members!

The Our Homes, Our Votes: 2022 webinar series features experts with frontline election experience who walk through every step of voter and candidate engagement activities and support housing organizations’ nonpartisan election efforts. The next webinar, “Registering Residents of Subsidized Housing,” will be held today (Monday, June 13) at 2:30 pm ET. Register for the webinar series here.

Housing advocates, resident councils, and tenant associations are eager to increase voter registration among new residents and other individuals who are eligible to vote. There are best practices for finding and registering these voters. This webinar will share strategies for incorporating voter registration into day-to-day operations at libraries and other community centers; identifying residences and neighborhoods with high numbers of eligible voters who are not yet registered; working with managers to reach low-income residents; and using tools such as the Preservation Database. The panel will feature Julie Ann Winkelstein, author of Libraries and Homelessness: An Action Guide; Jenny Garmon, civic engagement specialist at the Kansas City Public Library; Teresa Clark, deputy director of Washington Low Income Housing Alliance; and Dan Emmanuel, senior research analyst at NLIHC.

Our Homes, Our Votes webinars will be held on a biweekly basis until the week that follows the 2022 midterm elections. View the full schedule for the webinar series here.
