CHAPA Young Professionals Brown Bag Lunch Series: Standing up for Affordable Housing
with:
Eric Shupin, Director of Public Policy, CHAPA
Jesse Kanson-Benanav, A Better Cambridge
The current political climate requires that we all become champions for affordable housing. As costs continue to rise, and public funding remains uncertain
we all find ourselves asking the following questions:
- How do I become a champion for affordable housing?
- What ways can I become involved in my local and state jurisdiction?
- What are effective ways to communicate with local and state leaders?
- What initiatives are occurring now where I can lend my support around affordable housing?
Join us in this discussion with our hosts, Eric Shupin, Policy Director at CHAPA, and Jesse Kanson-Benanav of A Better Cambridge, to learn how we can all stay involved, connected and informed.
