One week left before my special online workshop on "Grassroots Organizing: How to Get Your Cohousing Project Launched"! Are you in the process of starting to create cohousing or another important community amenity? Or maybe you're considering embarking on this adventure? This course could be perfect for you. Organizing is the long-lost art of working with people to make things happen locally. At this juncture, where national governments are debilitated by division and divisiveness, we need to work at the neighborhood level to get things done. In essence, the formula is about initiative – who do I have to talk to today? You wake up and figure out what is the next step to move the project forward. So many important projects have gotten bogged down...this course will help you jump start them with gusto. There will be time at the end for Q&A. Join us!

Today, nearly one-in-four renters are spending at least half their earnings on housing with little left for other necessities, leaving millions teetering on the edge of homelessness. It has become apparent that we need a nationwide, federal commitment that matches the scale of the crisis to help all Americans secure affordable, good quality housing. Read our new study, The Case for Universal Housing Vouchers, to learn how a thoughtful expansion of our federal voucher system has the potential to bring relief to millions of our most vulnerable Americans. https://ow.ly/JBHe50Qa47H

These fees are collected on a regular basis, such as monthly or annually, and are used to pay for community management and the upkeep of all common areas, so you can continue to live in a desirable neighborhood with solid property values.
