The conversation will be moderated by David M. Greenberg, Vice President of Community Research and Impact at LISC.
Our discussion
Hear how tenants are organizing to save their homes and create more just local and national housing policies, as well as the role of private equity in fueling the housing crisis. The panel will explore the following:
- What is the impact of housing speculation and private equity in the single-family and multi-family rental markets?
- How do public policies and the actions of the Government-Sponsored Enterprises (GSEs) play into the housing crisis?
- How are tenants and community organizations working to build power for a just housing future?
There will be opportunities for audience questions and comments.
