The Campaign to Protect the Affordable Housing Law Community Organizer Training

June 14, 2010
9:30 amto12:00 pm

Date:  Monday, June 14, 2010
Time:  9:30am – Noon
Location:   St. Matthews Church (695 Soutbridge St. Worcester, MA 01610)

In order to be successful in November, staff, volunteers, and supporters of the Campaign to Protect the Affordable Housing Law will need to discuss the Massachusetts Affordable Housing Law with community leaders, the media, and the public.  It will be your voices – the voices of trusted community leaders and organizers – that local residents rely on when making a decision to vote NO to protect affordable housing for working families and seniors.

The June 14th training will be an opportunity to learn more about

  • how to accurately and effectively describe the accomplishments of Chapter  40B,
  • why the Commonwealth needs to protect it,
  • how to respond to common questions and concerns and
  • what you can do in your community over the summer to build a base of support for the fall Campaign.

While the discussion will be geared towards efforts over the coming months to defeat the initiative petition to repeal Chapter 40B, many of the lessons learned will be broadly applicable to the work of local housing and civic organizations.

A light breakfast will be served.
The event is free but an RSVP is required.
Please email info@protectaffordablehousing.org if you plan to attend.
