PAY Tribute To Tenants Change Makers
The 2nd Annual Affordable Housing Celebration will highlight and acknowledge the significant victories and achievements of individuals, tenants associations and housing cooperatives whose perseverance and tenacious fight to preserve their affordable housing have benefited all those impacted and concerned about this problem.
Their courageous leadership and excellent work will serve to inspire and motivate others to emulate their examples and stand up for the right to quality affordable housing.
The loss of affordable housing is growing out of control and causing much harm and suffering to low and moderate income residents. Yet, many residents and supporters are making mighty strides to preserve and expand quality affordable housing.
The event will also include a Housing Resource Fair to provide critical information to those who are facing challenges with preserving their housing or finding quality housing that is affordable, such as, legal resources, housing cooperatives with vacancies, housing counseling services, literature on tenants' rights, etc.
Please help us identify those outstanding Change Makers (leaders) whose contributions need to be rewarded with our recognition and thank you's.
NEEDED – Volunteers – Call Linda at (202) 234-9119!
