Playbook Mastermind: Housing Cooperatives in TN

​What if the people who live in a community also owned it?

​Join the Nashville Equitable Housing Cooperative (NEHC), an initiative of the William Franklin Buchanan Community Development Corporation (WFBCDC), for an in-person mastermind built around our new playbook, Housing Cooperatives in Tennessee: Building Affordable Communities Through Resident Ownership.

​NEHC and its partners are working to transition nearly 200 multifamily units into limited-equity cooperative housing. This session explains how that model works, why it matters for affordability in Tennessee, and what it takes to make it happen.

​What we’ll cover:

• ​Executive Summary: the playbook’s key ideas and what resident ownership can do for Tennessee communities

• ​Case Study: a close look at cooperative housing in practice

• ​Panel Conversation: an interview with Carlina Bell with WFBCDC, Joseph Davidson with MFX Ventures, and Kia Jarmon with MEPR Agency

• ​Live Q&A: 15-20 minutes to bring your questions to the panel

​Who should attend: residents and tenant leaders, housing advocates, community and faith leaders, nonprofit and CDC staff, policymakers, funders, and anyone curious about building affordability through shared ownership.

​Space is limited. Please RSVP to save your seat.
