Cooper Institute & The PEI Fight for Affordable Housing

Leading Impact Consulting Inc. collaborated with the Cooper Institute and the PEI Fight for Affordable Housing to drive community engagement and advocacy efforts. We conducted jurisdictional scans and facilitated meetings, interviews, and focus groups that allowed us to gather insights from a diverse range of stakeholders, many in vulnerable situations. Our team facilitated planning and advocacy workshops, authored draft regulations, and developed campaign plans and communication materials to support the organization’s mission. Through a collaborative process with individuals with lived-experience on rental hearings, we created content for a guide to rental hearing for tenants. https://peifah.ca/guide-to-rental-hearings/
