Advocate Now!<\/span>\n <\/div><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

Speak up for affordable housing and community development programs during NAHRO’s 2024 August Advocacy campaign! Every August, NAHRO leads a letter-writing and advocacy engagement campaign to flood Congress with messages in support of the programs our members manage and the difference they make in their communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why August?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Congress takes an annual August recess to return to their districts and connect with the people they represent. During this time, your elected officials want to hear from YOU! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Visit NAHRO’s brand new <\/em>Action Alert Center<\/a><\/strong> to send advocacy letters to Congress and the White House in less than five minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
