Housing Justice on the Ballot: Growing the Movement Through Electoral Wins (A Deep Dive)

Last election season, we saw localities play a leading role in changing the housing landscape to create the housing futures we want through ballot initiatives that advanced crucial housing justice wins including rent stabilization, just cause eviction protections, and the tenant right to counsel. This year, we are seeing even more campaigns that will continue to improve the lives of renters across the country. Ballot initiatives continue to be a powerful tool for communities to advance housing solutions that will work for them.

Building off of PolicyLink’s two fall Housing Justice on the Ballot webinars, please join us for a third installation in the series and the debut of our new tool — Housing Justice on the Ballot: A Ballot Initiative Guide — on March 21, 2023. In this webinar, we will dig deeper into the new Ballot Initiative Guide, which aims to support organizers and housing justice advocates in running their own ballot initiative campaigns from start to finish. We will also hear from organizers and advocates about some of the strategies they are using to build power and advance racial equity in local housing justice ballot initiative campaigns.
