The Our Homes, Our Votes: 2024 webinar series provides resources, guidance, and inspiration for organizations and individuals seeking to launch or strengthen their own nonpartisan voter and candidate engagement initiatives. The next webinar in the series, “Voter Education: Combating Misinformation and Disinformation,” will take place next Monday, September 30, at 2:30 pm ET. Register for the webinar here.
The rise of election misinformation and disinformation poses a threat to the democratic process and has a disproportionately negative effect on low-income voters. Chelsey Cartwright, Truth in Democracy Program Manager at the League of Women Voters, and Justin Kwasa, Democracy Program Director at the League of Conservation Voters, will provide a training that covers the basics of misinformation/disinformation and share strategies that housing organizations can employ to counter the threat of voter misinformation/disinformation targeted towards their communities.
The webinar dates and topics are listed below. All webinars will be held from 2:30 to 3:30 pm ET. For full descriptions of each session and archives of past webinars, visit: www.ourhomes-ourvotes.org/webinars-2024
