This is a great opportunity for Citizens' Housing and Planning Association (CHAPA) members to come together and meet with legislators about our shared policy agenda.

Our goal is to build support for CHAPA priorities, generate visibility for important housing programs, share constituent services resources with legislators and their staff and help build relationships between our members and legislators.
