Join us this Friday, May 17th, from 9:30 to 11:30 am, for the second webinar in our Community Ownership and Stewardship series! Secure your spot by RSVPing here.

Communities and organizations nationwide are increasingly embracing community ownership and stewardship models to foster a fairer and more equitable economy and living environment. However, a significant hurdle to this movement's growth is the access to resources—be it funding, social capital, technical expertise, financing, legal aid, or policies conducive to the flourishing of community ownership structures.

In this webinar, part of our "Pathways to Community Ownership" event series, we'll engage in a conversation with experts on connecting resources to transformative community ownership and stewardship projects. Topics include initiating community ownership projects, early implementation challenges, accessing capital, and strategies for scalability and replicability.

In collaboration with practitioners and experts, we'll explore:

• Strategies for accessing funding and capital, including innovative real estate financial products.

• Building capacity and accessing technical assistance for engaging in community ownership work.

• Effective anti-displacement programs and policies that support community ownership and stewardship initiatives.

The first half of the webinar will provide a platform for participants to share questions, insights, and experiences—a vital aspect for field-building. Additionally, we'll spotlight valuable resources on futureby.community, an online hub dedicated to community stewardship and ownership. The second half will feature a panel discussion with experts and practitioners.

The "Pathways to Community Ownership" series is an initiative of the National Equitable Recovery Alliance, a coalition of social entrepreneurs based in six U.S. communities. Our vision entails fostering anti-racist community development driven by local relationships and equity advocates, nurturing a new cohort of anti-racist community developers.

¡Únase a nosotros este viernes 17 de mayo, de 9:30 a 11:30 am, para el segundo seminario web de nuestra serie Propiedad y administración comunitaria! Asegure su lugar confirmando su asistencia aquí.

Las comunidades y organizaciones de todo el país están adoptando cada vez más modelos de propiedad y administración comunitaria para fomentar una economía y un entorno de vida más justos y equitativos. Sin embargo, un obstáculo importante para el crecimiento de este movimiento es el acceso a los recursos, ya sea financiamiento, capital social, experiencia técnica, financiamiento, asistencia legal o políticas que conduzcan al florecimiento de estructuras de propiedad comunitaria.

En este seminario web, que forma parte de nuestra serie de eventos "Caminos hacia la propiedad comunitaria", participaremos en una conversación con expertos sobre cómo conectar recursos con proyectos transformadores de propiedad y administración comunitaria. Los temas incluyen el inicio de proyectos de propiedad comunitaria, los desafíos de la implementación temprana, el acceso al capital y las estrategias de escalabilidad y replicabilidad.

En colaboración con profesionales y expertos, exploraremos:

• Estrategias de acceso a financiación y capital, incluidos productos financieros inmobiliarios innovadores.

• Desarrollar capacidades y acceder a asistencia técnica para participar en el trabajo de propiedad comunitaria.

• Programas y políticas eficaces contra el desplazamiento que apoyen las iniciativas de propiedad y gestión comunitarias.

La primera mitad del seminario web proporcionará una plataforma para que los participantes compartan preguntas, ideas y experiencias, un aspecto vital para el desarrollo de campo. Además, destacaremos recursos valiosos en Futureby.community, un centro en línea dedicado a la administración y propiedad de la comunidad. La segunda mitad contará con una mesa redonda con expertos y profesionales.

La serie "Caminos hacia la propiedad comunitaria" es una iniciativa de la Alianza Nacional para la Recuperación Equitativa, una coalición de emprendedores sociales con sede en seis comunidades de EE. UU. Nuestra visión implica fomentar el desarrollo comunitario antirracista impulsado por relaciones locales y defensores de la equidad, fomentando una nueva cohorte de desarrolladores comunitarios antirracistas.
