Register here to attend: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_KqDvlxp7RCCUzB9NpngOhg
HOME Line will host an online webinar about how renters can organize their local communities to prevent evictions. As we prepare for the inevitable end to the eviction moratorium and the flood of evictions sure to follow, Minneapolis-based Inquilinxs Unidxs por Justicia (Renters United for Justice) representatives will lead a training in eviction defense and talk about their efforts to make sure no one is forced out during the pandemic. There will be time for Q&A at the end of the session.
