“State Legislative Efforts to Advance Tenant Protections”
Attendees will learn about 2022-2023 ERASE cohort members’ successful efforts to pass tenant protections at the state level. Presenters will discuss the different types of tenant protection legislation they pursued, strategies used to pass protections, the various challenges they faced in their work, and how they overcame them.
Background:
The 2022-2023 ERASE Cohort is a select group of state and local nonprofit partners that are conducting on-the-ground partnership development, capacity building, outreach and education, policy reform, and systems change work to ensure that the gains made in setting up systems to provide emergency assistance and prevent evictions are sustained.
Each of the three webinars will focus on members’ unique efforts to enact and enforce tenant protections or extend emergency rental assistance, highlighting various strategies used to accomplish their initiatives.
