Resident-controlled housing depends not only on ownership structures but on the ability of communities to govern themselves over time. From affordable housing cooperatives and Mitchell-Lama developments to tenant associations, these models rely on collective decision-making to manage buildings, finances, and shared spaces.
Join us for a conversation with residents, organizers, and housing leaders as we explore what it takes to sustain democratic governance across generations. Drawing on lived experience, this panel will examine how communities navigate leadership transitions, cultural differences, and evolving resident needs while maintaining strong and inclusive participation. Together, we’ll reflect on the everyday practices that keep resident democracy alive. ✨
