This week's (November 13) Training Institute for Tenants & Residents (TITR) session is cancelled. The sessions will resume January 2026. Register for the series of webinars here and access archived webinar recordings here

The TITR launched on April 23, 2025, with the goal of empowering renters with the knowledge, skills, and tools necessary to protect their rights, organize their communities, and influence housing policies. Through training, advocacy, and leadership development, TITR equips tenants with the resources they need to take meaningful action and create lasting change.  

The 2026 webinar series will expand on the 2025 sessions and address key topics in the housing justice movement. 

Upcoming Webinars  

Policy 101—Thursday, January 29, 2026, at 4:00 pm ET  

  • Ever wondered how housing policies are made—and how you can shape them? This session will demystify the policymaking process at the local, state, and federal levels. Learn how to track legislation, understand your rights, and influence the systems that impact your rent, your neighborhood, and your future.  

Equity, Race & Culture 101—Thursday, February 26, 2026, at 4:00 pm ET  

  • Housing injustice isn’t just about systems—it’s about people. This session explores how race, culture, and identity shape access to housing, displacement, and power. We’ll examine the historic and ongoing barriers—from redlining to gentrification—and center on the voices and lived experiences of those most impacted. Participants will gain tools to recognize systemic inequities and advance housing justice rooted in equity, dignity, and community leadership.
