Housing Advocacy 101

Hosted By

So you're passionate about housing and you want to do something about it. What now? Speakers from housing, tenant, and immigrant advocacy groups will share best practices for housing advocacy during this Fairfield County Talks Housing conversation.

Advocacy could mean talking to your neighbors, putting up a lawn or window sign, or showing up a town Planning & Zoning Committee meeting. This conversation will focus on how to communicate with state and local lawmakers and organize within your own community to help change laws around housing.
