NAHRO’s advocacy work has been instrumental in shaping national policy and strengthening housing and community development programs. The voices of NAHRO members who see the impact housing programs have on their communities are critical to the success. Join NAHRO Legislative Network Advisory Committee and Congressional Contacts members who have felt the call to advocate. They will share their stories and how they have successfully framed their “why” work in housing with hard advocacy requests.
